That does look sweet ...

Unfortunately, I don't see a future for Media Center in the UK - HDTV is the future and MCE is limited to either digital terrestrial or analogue recordings, neither of which are HDTV and I don't see them changing that. The only HD service coming is from Sky and I don't see MCE supporting the Sky platform.

I would love to have a fanless PC, as well. Mine is just far too noisy :cry:.
