HTPC

So I finally pulled the trigger and ordered the parts for a HTPC for my living room. Once I get it all built and setup, I’m probably going to cancel my cable subscription. I’m pretty excited about the specs of the new machine:

• Intel Core i3-530 2.93GHz (with on-die HD graphics)
• Biostar Eco i2 case & motherboard w/Intel H55 chipset & IR remote
• 2 GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM
• 500GB 7200 RPM HD
• DVD/CD RW
• 802.11 b/g/n USB adapter

All for about $400 shipped. I’m hoping to get everything in by Friday so I can build it over the weekend. Then I’ll slap Windows 7 and Boxee on it and watch me some hulu.
