[QUOTE="NickName, post: 140832, member: 21675"] I have a few MP setups starting from a 1GHZ pentium through to a Dual Core. The Dual is my main MP box and it rocks. I can remote desktop into it without affecting the TV/people watching it. I can convert to DVDs to MP4 whilst it is recording TV and also synchronise Music & Photos to it over the LAN without any issue. As I have wife and four kids it is 'critical' that my playing with this box does not affect them ;-) I don't really have an issue with noise as when the TV/Music/DVD, etc. are playing you can't hear any PC noise. I did get sick of running out of disk space (for recordings) so I put 1 terabyte of HDs in it. That's great as I am converting all my DVDs to MP4 and storing them on it. No more hunting for DVDs for the kids! :-) Hope this helps, Nick Name [/QUOTE]
