Pants is an accurate description of the image quality, admittedly it was
quite a nice little unit but still bloody noisy when compared with a
"normal" setup.

Personally I would steer clear, a PC and it's components are designed,
in the main, to be all things to all people, Hi-Fi/AV components are
designed for one purpose...reproduction! apart from that what it cost to
build the sucker just to get a pretty crap image and sound could have
bought you some decent AV kit, IIRC that thing cost the guy knocking on
3K to build.

Jeez, was that room hot!
