Shame isn't it Docmok? AppleTV is far from a failure, but it should be bigger than what it is! At the pricepoint of the AppleTV, you really can't find anything comparable. A rarity considering Apple products don't exactly invoke images of budget conscious individuals. Maybe if Steve Jobs doubled the price people would notice.

Ken, yeah many people do that, but i'm content as is with the functionality of AppleTV. If i wanted more, I would probably get something from Elgato.

This is one of the best kept secrets of Apple, and it's a shame. I'm a technology geek like the best of them. I bought this product when it first came on the market with the 40 GB. I liked what it could do then. It was able to take the video from my computer iTunes, and play it on a set. Then, Apple developed the new software for it, it downloaded for free, and suddenly, it's an instant Netflix, joining to the iTunes store. If ever I miss a show, it's right there! The movies download and start playing instantly. It plays the music on my iTunes, YouTube searches, and my own video. Keep in mind, I still have the original 40gb! I've never had a problem, and just love it. Cannot recommend this enough, and no one I have recommended it to has a negative thing to say about it.

It gets better if you consider you could install XBMC or MythTV on the thing (it's basically a PC w/o a BIOS). Of course, this requires a bit of an adventurous spirit and a willingness to completely void your warranty and trash your ATV :-)

Hi Joe,

I actually had a mac mini a few years ago and used it as a HTPC. That was well before the Core 2 Duo version though.

For my current application, an Apple TV is appropriate since I don't need or want a HTPC anymore.

Did you consider going with a Mac Mini? I've heard that AppleTV is fairly limited with what you can do and the little bit more you'd pay for a Mini is worth it in being able to fully access the web.
