Computer-based devices like the Xbox360 and the PS3 certainly have/will
make it mainstream. We'll see if the media PC does the same.
But do any of the people buying XBoxes realize that it's a computer?
They're buying it instead of playing games on their PCs because it's an
appliance for playing games.
I do think that the server side could be more appliance-ized
successfully, hence my interest in the success or otherwise of the Qnap
