Thanks Christine.

Tempting, but I may just go with a dedicated player until the technology is a little older in the PC area and someone comes up with a better user interface for AV use. I know if I went the PC route I'd probaby spend MANY hours on it as opposed to plug and play......

Actually, the whole point of using a PC is that it *does* have a better interface compared to typical consumer electronics devices. Having gone through lots of byzantine setup menus in players with poorly documented setup options, I don't believe consumer electronic devices are any easier to configure or optimize.

Once everything is configured correctly, just load a disc and playing starts automatically. No keyboard or mouse required, everything can be controlled via a remote just like a dedicated player.
