As soon as it becomes feasible to get all my media over the net, I'll come back. I think all efforts to market Media Centers will fail until the media companies stop treating their customers like criminals. It's easier to get HD off of bittorrent than it is to record it. My wife just doesn't like waiting a week me to find the time to download it.

When will the media companies notice this "Preacher's Kid" pattern they are in?]]>Jan 30th 2008 9:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 10:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 1:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 3:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/
As much as I like Apple. I have said before and I will say again. They are missing the boat here. The computer of old is splitting into separate devices and becoming a commodity. These $300-$400 dollar machines can do all of the computing that 80% of the market needs to do. Yet Apple still wants to charge $600 for a Mac Mini with too much processor and too little hard drive.

They also need to start really listening to what people want in an HTPC. The AppleTV still doesn't have PVR functionality. Steve, you may have more money then some small nations but the majority of us do not want to pay $2 for a show we can record off the air for free.

So as much as I love my MacBook I am seriously thinking of looking other places for my HTPC.]]>Jan 30th 2008 8:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/

- 9" screen with 1024 width. 800 just isn't quite enough
- Add a 1.8" drive slot. Ideally a 2 platter drive if there's room. Offer two models with 30Gb or SSD then we can easily upgrade them with 80Gb or even 160Gb.
- Use a 1.3MP or even a 2.0MP camera. They're cheap now and 0.3Mp is a joke.
- And that's it. Don't change anything else. We can wait for processor upgrades in the eeePC III]]>Jan 30th 2008 4:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/
Wasn't there a hack to add a touch screen?
Well then if they won't add it, maybe I will (to mine)!]]>Jan 30th 2008 2:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/
I never used the touchscreen on my Lifebook, I never really even understood what it was there for. Just put in a bigger screen without enlarging the footprint, and I'm happy. ]]>Jan 30th 2008 3:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 3:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 5:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 6:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 6:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 7:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 7:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/Jan 30th 2008 9:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/
So ASUS is going to have an 'eee' class of affordably-priced items that spans their product lines. What do you care Engadget? How is that diluting the brand? They had bigger plans for the 'eee' moniker than you originally knew about. There's no reason to put a negative spin on it. Some of us are very happy with this news.

BTW, think of all the things Apple products should do if they were "avid readers" of Engadget. 3G comes to mind.]]>Jan 30th 2008 8:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/30/asus-extending-eee-brand-to-desktops-tvs-and-all-in-one-pcs/
