Re: Wow.

I think the MS HD codec requires a 3GHz CPU to decompress that 6Mbit stream. I don't see how their going to cram a 3GHz cpu in a set top box without making it sound like a jet engine.

Re: Wow.

They wouldn't they would use a slower single purpose processor which would be much more efficient. (Rather than strapping a PC to the top of your TV)

Not that it matters but my PC is a 3GHz and its whisper quiet since I used quiet components.
