Default OT For you digital media fans

I have been looking at new computers and thinking about using the PC for
both the office and Home Media Center (ie using their PC to watch and
record TV, store Music etc.)

From what I can see you can keep the CPU in the home office and use a
remote to hook the system up to your TV and Tuner.

Has anyone started to combine the computer with your Entertainment Center?


Make sure your new machine has a sound card with LINE LEVEL outputs, in case
you just want to run an audio signal to your stereo system, and deal with
remote control issues later. It is NOT recommended to run headphone output
signal to a stereo, no matter what anyone tells you.
