Eventually, this is what I am going to do...and you could probably get a very good system for half that and do everything but gaming.

And with Netflix making their "Watch Instantly" feature unlimited, this makes it even more appealing. Being able to queue up a movie instantly on your TV without having to hook the computer up to it.
