Now that the war was won, I guess I should no longer postpone entering into the Hi def field, at least as far as any new DVDs I buy. I gather that the higher resolution is well worthwhile even if you don't run a 1080p but a 720p projector.

So now the question is, where can I buy a BLU-ray player/tuner that also includes a hard disk recorder. As far as I can see the answer is pay a whack of money ($1K+ until prices come down)- but you'll have to wait awhile for them to be easily available, OR - build one for about $900 - it will just come in the form of a specially specced computer.

Has anyone gone the PC route, and if so, what did you think of it?
