the system resource usage on mce are dependent on the video card and tv tuner card being used. I never had more than 12-15% of cpu utilization running media center.
I noticed that nobody mentioned the fact that Tivo does not support codecs(real, quicktime, Divx, Xvid, etc).
I can watch an HD xvid rip of Lost in full 16x9 720p, dolby 5.1.
The closest thing tivo can do is recording a hd stream, and the hd tivo is about 1000USD right now and only certain satellite providers have hd tivos availible.
Can tivo upscale dvd, playstation, gamecube games to near hd quality? Dont think so.
I've never seen a $500 cellphone in japan nor have I 've seen a $.99 cellphone in the US. $50 in Japan gets you the equivlent of a $500 cellphone in the US complete with megapixel camera, outlook integration, and fast internet. Heck I just bought $60 cellphone in japan at a convience store, that the equivlent of a motorola V600, too bad I cant use it back in NY.
