[AccessD] Samsung 2 gb 5400 $80

I upgraded by TVs to flat screen HD.  So then I had to upgrade the cable to
get HD channels.  Then I had to upgrade TIVO to HD TIVO so the stuff I
recorded on the HD channels would be in HD on my HD TV when I played it back
on my HD TIVO.  

You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

For anyone doing an HTPC - this is a well liked, huge drive for a darned
good price.  I'm about to do this.

I just pulled the trigger on a 40" LCD for the bedroom and now I need an
HTPC.  I have a version 1 TIVO but that is getting long in the tooth, and
doesn't really look very good on a high def TV.  I think it is time to move
on, though I am not sure whether I will convince my wife to give up the
TIVO.  The TIVO is probably the most reliable piece of electronics I have
*ever* encountered and dead simple to use.

The HTPC will cost more than the TV by quite a bit (or the TIVO, even with
the lifetime subscription).  OTOH I built one for the living room and it has
been solid as a rock since I moved it to Windows 7.  The HTPC can work with
my Unraid media server to display not only ripped movies but photos, home
video and music.  My new low end cameras take stunningly good video in
addition to photos.

My daughter loves to sit and watch home videos of herself.  Quite the little
narcissist.
