Sub-$600 Media Center PC

Windows XP Media Center Edition

Gateway’s inexpensive brand eMachines recently announced it’s first PC running Windows XP Media Center Edition. This is great news! The eMachine T6520 has an Athlon 64 3400+, a 200GB hard drive, 1GB RAM, dual-layer burner, and lists for $599! There’s no excuse not to have one of these if you ever listen to music, watch TV, share photos and so on. It honestly changes the way you consume multimedia. I can’t say enough good things about the Media Center PC.

More of a do-it-yourself type? Try MythTV. Episode 2 of Systm gives a breif video on how to install & setup MythTV.
