      Hrmm….i had read about this buzz issue, but i haven’t noticed it on my TC-P50S2…is it something that happens over time? I’ll admit my apartment is not the quietest room in the world

        ditto on the ridiculousness here…yet another example of Microsoft committing to something and then doing it half ass. Raise your hand if you remember MCX Extenders??? How about Sideshow devices???

        Hopefully they can figure this out soon…but Dan…quit putting ideas in Mikinho’s head!!! 😛

            this isn’t a sale, Zygmunt has actually reached out to me, and is looking for the community’s feedback on some future chassis.

            I personally like them, but a silver case won’t fit in on my rack. That being said, i like the E7T…while no direct need for a screen, i still think it’s awful awesome.

            The ITX7 just looks masssssive

                    The video cards (ati 4850 HDMI) while getting better are still not quite there when comparing to a video chip in a console unit even after extensive calibration..

                    Really? I honestly have not been able to see much difference between the PC Graphics card and a dedicated unit. Though I dont have a unit to compare side by side.

                    Ah now we can start this whole debate? 🙂 j/k

                    But seriously, there’s been threads and debates ever since the first HTPC came out debating the picture quality possibilities of it versus a separate dedicated device. There’s nothing definitive and usually just comes down to the individual’s opinion.

                        yeah, that is a super clean job. I remember YEARS ago wanting to get involved in trying to mod a VCR or old amp…and just never found the motivation to do so. Very awesome job
