GnetX,
I had a look at the software you suggested a while ago using the Theatre 550P when it was first released. Unfortunately it didnt like the way the 550 processes Audio and Video so i didnt give it a second thought when writing this article. I can see from the page that it does now support the 550 so if i get the chance i'll give it a once over sometime and amend the article if required.
SwatX,
I wouldnt recommend the 2.8ghz intel dual core for this type of system (well not over a 3500+ anyway) the reason for this is heat (its not overly hot but is hotter than an A64 and that the 3500+ is cheaper and in encoding it is about the same as the 2.8DC. As for the 3800+, great chip but i was trying to keep the price down for the basic system as much as possible.
