I need a small, quiet PC capable of running XBMC.

I was planning on some Apple TVs, but there isn't a JB for them yet.


Any suggestions?

    just tried the app that came out, Nintendo Today.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It's pretty neat for a certain niche. From the series that I mentioned I liked (zelda, metroid, xenoblade) it automatically shows me extra info on characters and details like artwork and neat things related to the series I like.

    I'm a bit worried that this feature will automatically replace the library sharing when you have your account connect in more than one console
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    @K3Nv3, You get your PS3 yet?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @NinStar, I miss Iwata. He was a great asset to Nintendo.
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    he was a great asset to gaming over all. He were a great programmer. He probably made the launch of Pokemon to even come true, thanks to his custom compression for the games to fit on a gameboy cartridge.
