couldnt agree with you more Having an xbox with xmbc is by far the best and easyest media center but the main advange to it all is that it takes everything away from the cpu of the pc so if you cant have a dedicated pc for a server you can at least watch a movie on the xbox and still leave the pc free to do other things like play games etc and the interface is so simple that i am starting to teach my 3 year old how to get to his cartoons (not an easy task but damn its fun)

I forgot to add that used the old parts from upgrading my pc to make a dedicated server holding my video and music files

Ok i was watching you show and was interested in idea for watching things on the pc on a standad tv, but it seemed i lot of work so here is how i have mine set up buy a Xbox Wireless Adapter MN-740 and hook it up to your chipped xbox running xbmc now i can take the xbox to any room and stream from the pc (This even works when i take the xbox to my friends (accross the street) its simple (even my wife can use it), cheap and portable so you can even use in them long summer days when have a few beers and a BBQ with your mates in the garden
