According to Intel, the DH61AG board is compatible with socket LGA1155 i3, i5, and i7 processors up to 65W TDP. That's VERY promising. Anyone know which one Ceton is using???
Edit: Oh... and could we drop in a faster CPU and/or more RAM if, say, we want to run more extenders than the "Q" is designed to handle???

$600 for two OTA tuners and a 320GB HD? Seriously? Channel Master already has a product out, the CM-7400 (
http://www.channelmasterstore.com/HD_DV ... cm7400.htm), that has the exact same specs and comes in at $399. Not WMC, but same functionality, and I still think it's too expensive. What are these people smoking for that price point?

I'd add that its also only a DVD player, not a blu-ray player which I would expect for the price they are asking so its not really a ful HD player at all to joe soap who doesnt use rips etc.

Most definitely not lol! My dry humor at work again folks...
Ceton InfiniTV6 PCIe first hopefully, then some Echos and later on probably the Q.
There you go Ceton. $1500+ in the bag for you in promissory notes.
