Ok, so at long last I'm going for a proper dedicated HTPC!
I've done a bit of research and I think the below should be suitable, and is cheap, and easy, etc. (note: I'll be putting a different OS on it)
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/236579
What I'm consider however is, a PVR, obviously this isn't something present in XBMC right now, but it is where we're headed, and at that point, I'd like to be able to join that party.
So my questions are:
1. Will this Revo be suitable for use as a PVR in tandem with a product like a HD Homerun and XBMC as a frontend, once all that functionality is in place?
2. Will this run a heavy skin like Aeon MQ2, or will I need something with a bit more beef?
3. What would the good people of this forum recommend in terms of a remote & IR received to pair with this, or is there an alternative with one built in?
Thanks for all your lovely help in advance.
