Hi

i may be in the wrong place but im looking for a htpc that will do the part of home cinema equip. it would be an mce based os and hardware fairly decent but the casing has got to be neat.

any suggestions welcome. 

There are a lot of options out there, but it really depends on what you need... Are you looking to build one yourself?  What TV service do you have, and do you need cable card support?

Hi, you may want to take a look at Paradigm HTPC's. They have great styling, all aluminium construction and look more like a home theatre amp than a PC. The main criteria I am given when people contact me looking for an HTPC is that it must be quiet, which the Paradigm's are as they are passively cooled (fanless)
