I’ve been after one of those for a year now and I just don’t seem to get a spare $500 (that’s how much it costs here!) to get the 40GB version.

Why? I love the interface. I ran it on my Mac Mini for some time and it was great. Now I want to use my Mac Mini as my secondary desktop computer. But when I do that, I don’t have a TV media centre machine anymore.

Besides, boxee for Apple TV would make it a fine media centre system, adding a lot more features and removing the iTunes-jail it currently has.

I wish I had one. That way, I wouldn’t want or need another Mac so I could use all my current ones.
