BTW I'd be interested in the lowest power full linux installs that people have running their tv's... eg. an (overkill) i7-2620M 35W TDP laptop is about 14W @ the wall when idle and about 2W more when playing video. it'd be nice to get that lower.
I've been using the CuBox from Solid Run for an XBMC player - No inbuilt optical drive, but it has USB and could easily use one external. My media is served via NFS
Wow! that's neat. What version do you have, what OS are you running and any negatives? Presumably you use it as a player/renderer only i.e. no recording of say live TV? -- Colin Fee tfeccles@gmail.com
