Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought the bare bones ($229) version of this shortly after it was released to use as an HTPC. I didn't bother with Blu-ray or an upgraded video card because I knew a stand alone player would be better for the actual discs.
Once I had the box I plugged in a bluetooth adapter and an external HD to make up for the small stock HD. Initially I was frustrated because the video playback jumped, Hulu didn't work well, and so forth. However, once I went through the process of turning off the useless processes in Windows 7, updating the Catalyst drivers, using the Flash 10.1 and Silverlight betas, and putting Shark007 codecs on the machine it's worked wonderfully. Netflix in Windows Media Center plays flawlessly, Hulu works great, Youtube has no problems, Boxee runs nicely, and I can watch 720p and 1080p just fine (I use WMP with the Shark007 codecs). I really couldn't ask for more, especially because I paid such a good price for it. It does freeze up on occasion if I'm very impatient with it, but that's acceptable to me.
