I found a right bargain of a shuttle on ebay:

Shuttle sn26p
AMD 3200
80Gb HD
1 Gb RAM
x800gto 256mb
Official copy xp pro

I've got it, and it works like a dream, if a tad noisy (in other thread)

The question is how do I go about converting this into a media centre that I can use in my living room with a TV/projector (ie no monitor).

What I'm thinking:

  • Zalman cooling to quieten the Graphics card
  • Remote control
  • TV card to allow TV in and recording
  • Media software that's more TV friendly than XP

I'd appreciate your thoughts,

Cheers
