Another newbie post - or is it?

Yup, it is.

Greetings all. Elootos, I have been following your build for a while now, and you make me want to buy a house, just so I can kit it out not unlike your one. :) In the meantime, I will have just have to settle for the system that isn't built in. Plus, someone else would have to build it, as my skills at DIY max out at putting up a shelf and fixing cables without drilling holes.

Hello and welcome! Don't worry about DIY; we all start somewhere.

When I think back to how my system started 3.5years ago I'd never have thought it would be where it is now; the single PC that was running XP MCE is now my Windows Home Server with 3 more Media Center PCs all in custom installs. It's been a gradual progression over that time which is better, because you appreciate the advances in each step and can afford the upgrade over time.
