I'm turning a bunch of spare parts into an HTPC...using all my skt939 stuff.
AMD 64 3700+
Biostar Tforce939-6100 (awesome mobo)
1 gig Mushkin Redline XP4000
couple HD's that I had laying around till i buy a bigger one
got Ultra's version of the Aspire Q-pack for 39.99 after rebate (came with a 400W psu that is working well so far)
Lite-on DVD writer
I'm considering this guy right here (remote looks quality):
VL System M-Play Blast - 5.25" Black w/ Blue VFD
-or this right here-
Thermaltake Media Lab Control Panel w/ Remote - Black
Still gotta figure out the video card, video capture card and OS.
I have Vista business, Vista Business 64, and MCE and am still considering between those.
Wish there was a good HD tuner/capture/decoder card out there.
