I don’t normally post these types of earnings, but I thought it’s worth it since it’s pretty significant given that Netflix now has more subscribers than Comcast AND Sirius. With every week you hear about a new contender to the streaming websites, it’s impressive that they can keep growing. Next up, global domination. Netflix added 3.3 million subscribers in Q1 […]
Read moreI know the list of movies here is long, but at a closer look there’s almost nothing new that actually stands out. The Queen was supposed to be great with Helen Mirren, and while she was hilarious on SNL, I haven’t seen it yet. Lots of good kung-fu releases for you fans, and lots of re-issues on Blu-ray. MissingRemote’s Pick […]
Read moreBy now you’ve probably already read Andrew’s in-depth review of the Hauppauge Colossus tuner card, but it never hurts to see other’s opinions on something. And today Damian posted his review of the card and how it works in his situation. Today I will take a look at the Colossus to see if the experience is the same as when […]

Take this with a grain of salt. Over the years I’ve seen lots of leaks from Microsoft which features never saw the light of day, but at least this gives you some insight as to some ideas they’re thinking about. No mention of anything really Media Center focused here, as if that’s a surprise to anyone at this point. One […]

Read moreRemember when we used to need to convince average consumers to buy the Barracuda IV hard drive for HTPC usage from Seagate over WD or Maxtor? Well fast forward 8 years, and now Seagate is really trying to take over everyone. For a light 1.4 BILLION dollars, this is pretty big. There’s quite a bit more to this deal than […]
Read moreAnother week of not a lot of super star picks here. If you like kung fu, Ip Man 2 I’ve heard many good things about. Street Kings 2 has Ray Liotta in it…he was in Goodfellas, so that has to count for something right? Eh…onto the easiest pick of the week EVER… MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week The King’s […]

Read moreEver since my review of the Logitech DiNovo Mini keyboard, I’ve been encouraging it to everyone since I feel it’s one of the best keyboard/mouse combos for HTPC usage. Logitech has a deal going right now for $80 shipped, which is about $30-50 less than what you can normally get it for. Logitech has Logitech diNovo Mini Keyboard (Dented Box) […]

I’m not sure if I had $450 to spend that I would go this type of SFF nettop route for my HTPC client (or main system)–the lack of upgradeability would most likely turn me off.
