[QUOTE="revs, post: 126910, member: 42810"] So after a lot of consideation I have decided that the Mac Mini would make a great HTPC - it looks ace, its tiny, it fast and has a DVD burner, oh and its silent! Silence is my most important factor. So now its a case of choosing a few peripherals. The built in IR port isnt currently supported under windows, so a external IR receiver and remote is needed - if i am correct a ir receiver comes with the MS media centre remote? Also, the main question I have is regards choosing a TV tuner. Obviously it will have to be USB and external - Does anyone see any issues if I purchased two or three of those small USB TV tuners (e.g. nova-t USB) :thx: [/QUOTE]
