I got my take home Media Center yesterday! It's a HP 873n (it looks like it is no longer available). Specs: P4 2.5ghz, Hauppauge tuner, nVidia GeForce FX5200, DVD writer, CD writer,... It has DVI output and surround sound. Most importantly it's running the latest most bleeding edge build of Windows Media Center.

...A big perk at working in the eHome division is that you get a free take home Media Center. The catch is that you have to run the latest builds which is great because we get the latest functionality first but means you're finding (and logging) a lot of bugs.

I'd invite you all over to check it out but I don't have a TV or cable yet. When that happens I will.

Brad: I haven't had a problem playing any of the TV shows I've downloaded off the Internet.
