Empicentre: Thoughts?

The concept of a premade HTPC isn't a very good one IMO. You can do MUCH better for MUCH less building yourself, and any system like this is going to take a good amount of technical know how to setup and keep running smoothly anyway. Build your own.
 
I've got no problem with a prebuilt system. People make the HTPC out to be so complicated. It's a PC with a couple of distinct parts and a piece of software. It is easier to build than my desktop was. It only has to serve one role. My desktop has to be an A/V editor, gaming box, web editor, and pr0n server.

with that said, I don't see many specs about that pc to tell if it is any good. All I really see is that the standard hard drive size is 40gb, which is way too low for an HTPC that will be recording TV.
