yeah and it's overclockable! I'm just trying to figure out why its around £100 more than the acer aspire revo R3600... which is £150. OK, its got the dual core atom and a dvd drive... but £100??!

OK, I bought one of these things - it's bloomin great!!

Plays HD films 100% fine, consumes 20w, and is barely audible! Am running Windows 7 media centre on it, hooked up to WHS PP3, and a £5.99 remote control - perfect setup!

Tried a game out on it too - was VERY suprised how well it ran!

I'll most likely be buying another, maybe 2.

Nox, are you using XBMC Linux or Windows? I've installed XBMC and its nice but I uninstalled thinking I'd put Mediaportal on to control TV cards on another machine. But I think I might go back to XBMC and bite buklet on setting up Samba to share files to/from my Windows machines and Mac.
