Yesterday I finally cancelled my DSTV subscription for good and then started reading up about media players and and and....
Finally decided I would go the HTPC route with XBMC.
Was hoping somebody here could point me in the right direction to the best price for an HP Proliant Microserver. Will then obviously need a graphics card for it as well and I will figure out the Wi-Fi thing along the way.
Thanks.

There is a whole thread dedicated to the HP microserver. You need a low profile graphics card. 1gb or 2gb of ram is sufficient if you running openelec or xbmcbuntu.

Quite tempted to pick one up in that case... I can't quite remember my username for them though. Whoops.

Wow that is an awesome price. Definitely going that route.
Erm... Now to try and buy from them. Will PM Esquire and ask about an account. I never bothered to open my own account when they no longer used the MyBB account.

For sure. Looks like I decided to cancel DSTV and start my HTPC experience at exactly the right time.
Just awaiting activation of my online Esquire account now.
