i am new to this forum and just what i have been trying to do for years i just stumbled on this forum and found it interested me very much
my first question would have to be why spend all that money on a htpc when you can just buy a media player
it does everything i need it to do it plays all movie types and music also
i just plug in my portable hard drive or external one with all my movies and music on them and play away
it also has wifi and ethernet so streaming isn't an issue either but i see how big this forum is and would have to assume there is more to this htpc thing then meets the eye
please feel free to comment and set me straight on any thing i might have missed because i truly do want the best home theater experience i can get or afford
