    I don't exactly understand the point you are trying to make with the dialogue, I assume it is some kind of joke.

    In seriousness, I don't see what you are getting at; what you described looks like product placement within television shows and (obviously) advertising - which, as we all know, is controlled by the television station/producers, not whoever designed your box. Client/Server comes to mind.

    But is it really worth it? AFAICS, the barebones rig has no proc, no drives, nor does it have the dvd/cdr mentioned in the article.

    Well, 'good' for the common public I suppose; your average 21 year old living out of home probably wouldn't have much need for an 'alternative' OS.

    I admit, it *is* a bit of a brick.. but you seriosuly wouldn't buy one of these based purely on how the back ports are arranged?

    I thought those things were hidden from view anyway, hence the term 'back'

  5. Re:PVRs... for cars? on Second Generation Homebrew PVR Devices · · Score: 1, Informative
    I remember an article about that too, but i can't recall the address. I know a guy in my street who has a wired vehicle (took out the left passenger seat, installed a kind of desk with a laptop permanately fixed to it). Im in Australia though, so i have no idea as to legality of the whole thing.

    Out of curiosity, what would you use it for? The aforementioned guy had no idea why he did it, he just wanted to make his car more "tech" apparently.
