Interesting option. But I definitely won't spend money for anything having
the word "Microsoft" stamped all over it. Furthermore it's EUR 200,- here
just for the box, and additionally you need the chip an at least a remote
control or something... and that's a bit too much for now. Someday I'll put
up a real multimedia box for the living room though.
