Discussion Q&A - Living Room PC? - 2006/06/25 20:31Do you think Apple should release a 'real' living room PC like the Sony Vaio XL2 or Shuttle XPC M2000? Why or why not?

Re:Discussion Q&A - Living Room PC? - 2006/06/26 11:50I would welcome a way to combine a computer, TiVO, and an A/V setup in one box. Would make things easy. I'd like Apple's more than Sony because it probably would not be crippled with DRM. But I am not much of a game player. You really think people would boot back and forth to listen to music or play games?? I doubt it.

Re:Discussion Q&A - Living Room PC? - 2006/06/26 15:36I'd buy one as long as they made it easier to upgrade the hard drive than the mini, maybe slides out the back like a drawer to put in more storage would be nice. - Mike

Re:Discussion Q&A - Living Room PC? - 2006/07/03 16:56i would not have a prob booting back and forth to listen to music, edit a video or whatever on the mac and then booting into xp to play a game. i would get a mini or a macbook now if there was one with a real video card. as is i am kinda stuck. but you are right titus some people prob would just run one os.
