I dunno about HIV, but poison, etc. remember the Tylenol scare? That's why everything is sealed up now.

Anyone build a HTPC?

I'm looking at doing one to run XBMC... Initial feedback is that I was shooting WAY too high with specs initially so now I'm looking at an Athlon II x3 build... If I haven't forgotten anything, it looks like it'll be around $425 complete (already have HDDs and BR-ROM).

edit: also considering an SSD for the system/boot drive. 40G should be big enough.

Cool and jealous. The service manager grilled for us about two weeks ago and fed us undercooked chicken and beef. F this place.
