Just recording my pre-6AM musings...
An itchy trigger finger is urging to build a small form-factor PVR/HTPC. According to AVSForum-HTPC, I need to look no further than ATi, as nVidia (and others) just haven't come close ... yet. That is, if I don't go straight to HDTV and I get by with any onboard video.
Since my intentions are to fulfill the SSF PVR/HTPC desire, I may not need the absolute lastest hardware and I'll need to take things like potential fan noise into consideration.
