So I got a new toolbox, some Raiders clothes, a screwdriver set, and all the winter gear I need for ABU's. That's right, fleece, APEX, and sleep shirt. And with the monies I got I'm going to go and get an Apple TV today.

Hey do some studying before you buy...I keep looking at the Roku or even the Veebeam. The Roku pulls streaming content to your TV and the Veebeam wirelessly streams anything on your computer to an HDMI input on your TV. the Roku is $100 for the top unit and the Veebeam is <$150...just sayin' I'm seriously tempted to buy a second PS3 for streaming use in the bedroom. The Apple TV is just kinda limited as far as I can see, anyway. Don't get me started on Google TV.....boo!

I appreciate it, but I'm using iTunes almost exclusively for media nowadays. Over the next year or so I'm moving completely to Apple products for my home computing, fuck Windows. The Apple TV will work until I replace my entire media system with a Mac Mini running Boxee. VeeBeam looks cool though.

No gifts opened in my house yet - I'm the only one here until Tuesday and Evan will be home for New Years. He told me mine is set to arrive this week, the only hint was a choice of color - Orange or Black with Red. *giddy*

Boxee is cool! I have the app on my phone and computer but I haven't bought the unit yet, still weighing my options. I've intalled quite a few mac minis and they are a decent piece of equipment for sure but I am seriously wondering if I wouldn't be better served ordering a mini tower and components from New Egg and connecting that to my TVs... Or again just buying a second PS3...

I would recommend building a cheap tower with a lot of ram, HDD space and a midgrade processor for a home theater computer. Think a bottom end Core Duo processor with 8 gigs of ram and a small main drive with at least a terabyte secondary. You can use on-board graphics and sound without any problems. Even with another ps3 you'll be transferring files either to an auxiliary drive or constantly maxing out your wifi bandwidth with transfers and filling up the ps3's drive. Might as well cut out the middleman. Boxee has a dedicated unit made by Dlink you might want to check out, it works a lot like the old Apple TV but with Boxee instead of the iTunes store, check it out at Dlink's site or read this C-Net hands on review.
