i feel like i'm slowly having an Apple revolution in my life,i'm buying an iMac soon and maybe learn how to use Mac too. i've been reading a lot about their products recently.now i'm thinking about buying this too

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_TV

the exciting thing is you can plug in your external hard disk to it too...can anyone vouch for this?

Once you go Mac, you will begin to hate PCs. That's how it usually goes.

Just make sure you get an extended warranty option, because maintenance is a bitch with Apple products.

for now,i think i'll buy this instead,it's cheaper and i have a couple of WD hard disks i can plug it into,i'm just surprised WD is dumb to include one USB port only and guess what? the HDMI cable does not come with it,it comes with a shitty 3 colors TV wire...can anyone vouch for this baby?


@ sammy,can you tell us more about boxee? i checked the website but i'm too lazy to learn..
