I am sooooo jealous right now. That is exactly what I want for my next xbmc machine. Can you tell me which Atom processor it it running? The GUI seems surprisingly smooth and the video is perfect also.

Very cool. I hadn't heard about that South Pacific series (I'm in the US). I'll have to check that out.
So, I've only played around with a linux install for a month or so, using a dual monitor setup, as I have my main pc hooked up to my TV for dual purpose.
I would like to do this and start building these for friends and family. Is XBMC at a point, do you think, that a non tech person wouldn't have any trouble once it is setup (as far as crashing, etc. I know when I played around with my non dedicated linux install, that I had issues with the sound driver for the most part)? I guess I should just configure one for myself for a couple of months and see.

Can a non tech person use it easily? Absolutely, just ask my wife. But can she upkeep and troubleshoot it? Could she figure out why the scrapers don't always work properly and workaround them? No, probably not. XBMC is great for your own home, but do you really want to be an on-call technician for family/friends?

I hope Nvidia hooked up the devs with a couple of freebies.

Got a very busy band-holiday weekend coming up, but i'll post an Aeon video on Monday if I get chance.
Killa sample actually played fine - the first ~1s of it were screwy, but that's pretty normal because of the lack of keyframes at the start of that file. I stopped the video a little early, cos I dropped the camera whilst going in for a closeup on a power meter I had on the plug socket... 32W whilst decoding killa.
Really the only thing I noticed much difference on (apart from compiling XBMC which took __SIXTY__ minutes) was the generation of thumbnails for videos, which is kinda to be expected I suppose.
