I normally run this skin on an Xbox on my BigScreen Tv in the living room. Last night I bought out a Dual core 1.6 just to see how it would do. I was only running a PC VGA cable because I don't have an HDMI or DVI cable on my machine.
WOW. The skin is amazingly smooth and it just seems to glide from one screen to another. I gave the trailers button a try and it fired off without a hitch.
Do not get me wrong. The Xbox can run this just fine and it has for several weeks, but a good powered PC makes it look like pure candy. No delays, no funky transistions it just works well.
Xbox
800mhz processor
64meg of ram
High Def Pack with Componet Cables
My test machine
Dual core 1.6 processor
1gig of ram
VGA off the crappy on board video
With update library on start enabled
With recent Tv Show, Movie, Album all enabled
My attempts are not to turn this into a PC vs Xbox topic just for you guys running an Xbox and or just a PC I wanted you to know my little observations with this awesome skin.
