Cox to offer retail TiVo Premiere DVRs next year, first with cable VOD & Amazon, Netflix access {Engadget}
Aug 12th 2010 12:55PM Well, I had a tech (an actual Cox employee, not a contractor) come out and fix my cable cards last week (have a HDXL and HD). He asked why I don't just use their box. "Well, because your box sucks. The storage is laughable for HD and the GUI is terrible."
He was kind of butt hurt and proceeded to explain that they're going to release an updated GUI in a few weeks and hence will no longer suck.
And he complained the whole time about how Tivo's were a pain in the ass to fix, how terrible and overpriced they were. I agreed, but reminded him he works for Cox.

Jun 9th 2010 2:28PM @C64person Now does it have gig ethernet? I have a ton of blu-ray iso rips (legal) that I want to use for the kid's room.

May 6th 2010 11:13PM HP Mini 311, single core atom, upgraded to 3gb of RAM and a 7200rpm 500gb hard drive. Windows 7 Ultimate. I have the following programs currently open: Outlook 2007, Chrome with 6 tabs open. Connected to my Windows Home Server through RDP in IE. Oh, and Itunes is open. Using 45 to 60% CPU. 6.5 hrs of battery life. A real keyboard.
It works for me.

Feb 5th 2010 12:30AM I second the Acer Revo, although you don't really need dual core, just an extra 2gb stick of RAM. External eSATA drive and you have it all. With the right software you can output uncompressed audio via hdmi. AND since it only uses 8 watts at full load, you can run it all day as your torrent client as well. There.

Jan 5th 2010 10:20PM @powermatt Yup, I've been thoroughly impressed with win7's Media Center GUI. That said, since I've already got all the hardware all I need is that damn tuner.
