Yeah, I use XBMC, nice software.I'll probably have a low powered shuttle box attached to a NAS for that. Nice interface.

My step dad's got one of them for the same purpose.Seems like slight overkill to me, but they're certainly very capable.

I seem to be using less powerful kit these days.I have barely turned my desktop or netbook on since I got my Nexus 7.
