[sf-lug] Hardware for a Linux-based media hub

[Samir Faci]

Well... as far as I can tell you cannot do netflix without some windows
emulation, running a vmware + windows install or other abomination... so
taking that out of the equation...

If you want a cheap media box, why not look at rasebery PI? they have a
really decent video card.. I believe you can do 720p with it.

a simple search on google (first hit, didn't really look at it too closely)
