I was looking at http://www.thermaltake.com/product/Chassis...4/vh4001bns.aspand thought that my Tt mod days were over  sort of. Since I have broadband, and now LCD's are cheap. Isn't it better to make a PC which can just replace your TV and entertainment system and at the same time you do your own work with that PC? I was thinking sopcast+LCD+desktop casing like that (or better) replace TV, DVD player, astro etc Now only problem is the expandability of such casings. Ideally tower would be better, but no remote controls. Or should buy external card which comes with remote. Also low number of external ports is a worrying thing. Need suggestions on how to make efficient work pc (need to do work most of the time)+home theater (when not doing work)+game capable(sometimes) alternatives. Also hardware and software suggestions that you have used to make yours work. Thanks This post has been edited by mystvearn: Sep 9 2008, 10:07 PM

You might be better off asking in the Hardware Questions & Answers Section.
