I've browsed through the forums, as well as tips & tricks, but my search-fu may not be up to par
I've run XBMCBuntu for a while now without issue, although I'm considering switching to a Windows based installer so I can have access to a few more media options (Hulu Desktop, Netflix, etc..)
I already installed Win 7 Ultimate x64 on a test box (Zotac HD-ID11) and noticed that browsing and playback is a little slugish. I'm guessing because of the added bloat due to Windows.
Are there any guides anywhere that show what I can disable / uninstall / strip out of Windows that I don't need for my xbmc box? or is the end result that I may just need to get a beefier box if I want to run XBMC through windows instead of XBMCBuntu.
