So ideally I would need simrec and flirc?
Which version of Simrec are people using PCS-1 or 2?
Am so tempted to pull the trigger but can't help but wonder about the Gigabyte Brix....
You don't necessarily need FLIRC. Any Windows Media Center USB remote receiver will work, OpenElec supports them very well. You can get setups on eBay for well under $10 USD shipped.
I'm actually surprised that Intel did not include the special IR header on the NUC that many of their motherboards have. It allows for painless power on, power off through IR with the use of a $25 part that also doubles as a MCE receiver.
