By far, the best way to enjoy your media such as Cable TV, Internet, DVDs, Blu-ray Disks, Photographs, Home Movies, Music, CDs and other forms of media is with a simple, easy to use and fully integrated Media Center. Thanks primarily to Microsoft and the Vista products and other vendors such as Dell and HP with their Digital Cable ready computers and ATI with their CableCard TV tuner, these systems are available today. They have great reliability and flexibility, but are difficult to design and configure. It has only been possible to create these Media Center systems since about 2008, and has only been possible by sophisticated "Geeks".
