Re: X-Box question



> If it does have a serious HA side, then what do people use it for ?

In our house it's a movie player.  It pulls movies (DivXs) over the LAN
from
the jukebox PC in Node Zero.  No messing with disks or tapes. My Mrs loves
it, as the kids can opperate it themselves watching their favourite movies.

We show our digital pics on it too.  21st century version of boring the
relations with slides of your holidays :)

We had visitors in on Saturday night and we made extensive use of my
"80s"
MP3 folder :)   I was great to see their reaction.  I have done a bit more
with the MP3 side of things lately (I didn't realise it could play .m3u
files) and although it's still far from perfect it is very usable. 
Remember
too with the special AV lead it has optical out!

Oh yeah...and it's a pretty good games console too...all for the price that
some people pay for a PC Graphics card

:)

Some screen-shots here...
