Connect360 does everything you would need on a MAC setup except stream non-WMV files. They are working on a transcoder but at this point you cannot stream divx and the like. For now you need to convert your non-WMV files using flip4mac studio. BTW appleTV will also restrict the use of divx files just like connect360 or a windows media center setup. There are transcoders for the windows media setup from what I have heard. IPTV is another beast and really goes above and beyond what appleTV or connect360 do.

Who needs appleTV? I love apple products but right now with connect360 I can stream all of my media from my mac to my xbox. Nothing to buy except the connect360 software. Sure the interface could be improved and nullriver need to complete the transcoding software but it works great now.

Xbox 360 will never have HDMI output. It's converters are analog. But a TV set with 1080p over component or VGA input and you will be set. The new samsung models all have these features.

JRock3x8 I'm not sure what you are talking about as far as subpar online play. Gears, Vegas, COD3 and the lost planet demo will keep me busy long thru the new year. Hell I have been playing more coop vegas and gears than anything else.

Amazon just had a sale on these for 39.99 shipped. Got one for my brother for Xmas.
