Re: [rant] I give up on Mac OS X for a HTPC.

Since I have Adelphia HD, I get a DVR box which is great. For me, a Media Center is more than just DVR, its about MEDIA. I have mine set up even more integrated now which I can go from TV to MEDIA in 3 Seconds and back. I also have the Lacie Mini companion which I have over 120 movies ripped on it. Mark, DVR is part of the HTPC.

I know this man! The great thing about MCE is that EVERYTHING is all within reach from the remote. Music, movies, DVD, live TV/recorded TV...I don't ever have to pick up the remote. Oh, and my two 750GB Seagate Hard Drives are nice

I broke out from the cable company's scientific atlanta DVR because it was a POS.

... and that's why the cable company is going to have to pry my DirecTiVo's from my cold, dead hands. Especially the HD one! ( 4x SD and 1x HD for me, thanks!
