[QUOTE="Waltz, post: 70952, member: 10616"] MediaPortal will run on this machine, but it will be a little bit slow on a 1 GHz system. Having enough RAM (at least 512 MB) and a DirectX 9 capable graphics card (a GeForce FX 5200 will do fine) is more important than a fast CPU for most situations, though. MediaPortal is clearly superior to MCE, you can find whole threads about this on these forums if you want. But you will have to invest quite some time for the configuration of the main program and all the nice plugins, and for fiddling around with different codecs. So if you have much more money than free time, go for a Dell MCE system, but of course I'd recommend going the MediaPortal route :) - Waltz [/QUOTE]
