Slow news day, but this cracked me up. I grew up with a Commodore64, so how cool would it be to use one and put it next to your TV? Then throw a C64 emulator on there, play a little Summer Olympics…and let the good times roll. Inside that iconic case it has an Intel Atom 525 CPU with […]
Read moreI was surprised nobody else posted this, but our friends at Boxee continue churning out nice improvements, this time with some nice Movie Libraries. Still awesome, and still FREEEEE So just to recap: Boxee now has a movie library it has thousands of movies from multiple sources the movie library has titles available for users around the globe we’re still […]
Read moreStar Wars on Blu-ray got a fair amount of discussion this week, along with plenty of other great home theater topics. Enjoy! Blu-ray revenue and market share finally make a small resurgence with the first positive revenue change in a month and best market share since June 20. On the sales front, Date Night takes the top spot in both […]
Read moreSilence is definitely golden in your home theater pc, so a power supply is one place where many people look to quiet. Honestly though, I wasn’t even aware there were even this many fanless power supplies still being made. With 120mm PSU’s dominating the market while being very quiet and helping cool, the demand for 100% silent really has diminished. […]
Read morePretty cool little installation here, where the user basically built the computer inside his entertainment center. Shows some good thinking outside the box, no pun intended 🙂 Overall looks very clean. You’ll need to size the board according to your motherboard and components. In my case, the PC is a gutted Dell Inspiron 518 Core 2 […]
Read moreI’ve never been a TiVo user–loved the idea, but hated the monthly costs–but this new remote is a pretty cool little device. It’s not really all that unique, it’s basically taking the idea from any old cell phone, but with a remote front instead of a screen. But it’s still pretty cool, although…for $90 I would rather buy a Dinovo […]
Read moreLots more to choose from this week from last, but still not that many great ones that stand out. Obviously the Lost Complete Collection will excite many people, but that was too obvious a selection. I love LOST, but not sure I could watch every episode again. I was thoroughly bored through Dorian Gray for what it’s worth. Another great […]
Read moreI know GoogleTV is all the buzz right now on extender devices, but Sony is trying to get their name in the space and have a pretty solid product, with support for apps like Netflix, Slacker, Pandora as well as being a DLNA player, at around $130 is not all that bad. I’m not a fan of the interface, which […]
Read moreThis is the type of report that you can interpret whichever way you are biased. If you’re Hulu, you can tout this report of how you’re taking over blah blah. I tend to side more with the thoughts of this analyst–in these times of recession, people are simply looking to cut costs, and who really needs 300 TV channels? […]
Read morePretty cool app for Media Browser…if they could just support deleting, I could go back to using them. Alas, still very cool for this movie watching application. The app looks great, you can browse the media library and then set them to play on the Media Center box and the remote control feature has a very cool UI. […]
