RE: Which media centre

["Jim" <jim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Looks a good unit, and about the cheapest as well!

Where did you get it from? Can't find many places that list it and the
model
differences are confusing as (I think?) the have recently updated it to a
twin-tuner, but listings still show a single.

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Scaleo E.

Very quiet and no problems in 4 months.  It has 2 XBox 360's and a Roku
Soundbridge running off it as media players and all works fine.

Looking at the options for replacing the mess of TV equipment in my lounge
and wonder what experiences people have of the current "living
room"
orientated media centres.

So far I've found
Sony VAIO XL100
Philips Showline MCP9350i
Acer iDea 500

The Acer seems to be getting very mixed reviews, can't find much about the
others (wonder if they are too new?).
