Just curious to see what our fellow Evo-Web community uses :)

I for example, have 32' Sony Bravia LCD 720p hooked via HDMI cables to my HD DirecTV Receiver. Then I had fat 40gb PS3 that I recently got rid of and got a slim 120gb PS3 also via HDMI.

Apart from my TV and PS3, I only play 3 games, PES 10 (mostly playing this now), UFC 2009 and if I get bored I pop in FIFA 10 now.

I'm looking to get a keyboard for my PS3, a bluetooth headset.

Let's see what you all got :D
 
Sanyo 1080p PJ at about 100" screen size, Xbox 360, DVD player, 5.1 system, Sky HD and a small 25" TV for use when the PJ aint on
 
42 " Panasonic Full HD plasma
Dreambox HD 800 - full hd satellite box
Sky HD
xbox 360
wii
HTPC brand new for blueray and HD rips
Sony Amp
5.1 tannoy speakers/sub
CCTV DVR

this is what is in my front room at the moment

no

the first revisions are about 150 but are not as good as the new one

the new one costs £310 then you need a hdd, so your talking 370

so i decided to build a htpc which will do what they can and more, for a couple hundred more

gunna sign up to ilovefilm and rent blue rays and add them to my collection :P
 
32" samsung le32rb or something like that
1 360 premium 20 gig
1 360 elite 120 gig
philips 5.1 dvd / surround sound combo

not the best or biggest but enough for my bedroom

can you tell me more about htpc? oh wait home theatre pc? so what did you add to play and store BR to disk? What application do you use to playback bluerays on your pc?
 
you can use any dvd hd http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvdhd.html with a normal blu ray reader

to play back you can use various programs to play it back

power dvd would work with iso's if you mount them

but it depends what format they are in

m2ts files you can launch in media browser with mpc

i will be building mine tonight, and will let you know when i know more..
