i think the biggest crowd this applies to (including myself) is a freakin htpc card that is hdcp certified that does not take up 2 pci spots.

What approach did you go with or solution, and did you intergrate it into your htpc?
I'm still not 100% on using MCE, but just seeing what others have done.
Thought it was cool info, I'm sure whenever I get a chance to check one out personally I'll make a complete and forumlated response to your answer. Until then, I'm just sharing the news.
Samsung must realize those DLP bulbs don't last long enough and cost too much because the new 56-inch HL-S5679W DLP set uses LED lighting. Hey, Samsung, while you're under the hood, why not kill that color wheel too? Oh wait, they did that too with red, green and blue LEDs, which is killer...
