Also, I don't know what X10 or V220 are, but I have a feeling US TV standards are different enough that a product for Europe probably wouldn't work.
I hadn't realized that either the XBox or the Apple video appliance worked with open source stuff. That's good to know. I remember trying to figure out what the point of Apple's product was when it was announced; I'm finally getting it. My TV is standard definition, though my computer monitor can do high def. Do any of those solutions let me control what is playing with a remote, or at least without going back to the PC? I suppose I could use my laptop to do that. Come to think of it, could I use my laptop for the TV? I'm pretty sure it doesn't directly do TV out, but it does have a regular VGA output and some USB slots.
