Our Tivo HD has been locking up, and I'm looking to replace it with an HTPC. I want Cablecard/DVR capabilities, and I am also thinking of adding blu-ray playback while I'm at it.
I've compiled this list of hardware after reviewing some of the guides on this forum. I still need a remote (really just an IR receiver that will work with my Harmony) and blu-ray playback software (TotalMedia Theatre seems like good bet, although it's expensive).
Any thoughts? I want something easy to use and family friendly that will integrate into our living room. We're unlikely to game on it.
UPDATE: New hardware list. Slight update on RAM and added case fans.
