[QUOTE="Messiah, post: 2443, member: 10354"] [b]HTPC Success story[/b] @ our home its 95 % use and 5 % config. As I pulled all our CDs in there (~80albums is now MP3s), its the main source of musik. And I also created xvid's of all children DVDs which are played a lot. We also have all digital photos since 1998 in there togeather with my VideoCAM films wich also is converted into xvid. I had a few weeks of learning my wife when we used myHTPC some months ago. But when I dropped it and focused on MP, she didn't have any problams to adapt. She even told me that the MCE look is very nice. We're now in the process of throwing out the VCR as the HTPC now also takes the tv-recording part. I have a Happuge PVR250, but I lack from broadband access, so I do not get any program schedules by magic. Fiber2Home is ordered and is expected to arrive this winter. We're more users than configers here, thats 4 sure. A successstory so to say. I actually have a spare HTPC were I test new versions and play around with own build things. The main reason for the HTPC is to throw away boxes wires and stuff that does not apply to my wifes picture of a nice livingroom. Today the living room only contain a surround system which is connected by fibre to a ASUS Pundit PC with MP. And beside there is a PS2 and a VCR. The PS2 and VCR is going away as soon their functions can be easy handled by the HTPC. 8) \Rob [/QUOTE]
