On a slightly similar note, I've got a Asus Pundit-R which has two (blue)
LED's that shine through a clear plastic
strip that runs the height of the case, there is plenty of room to stick
something there and I plan to stick a IR
receiver in there[1].

It's also nice because the Pundit-R has a serial port with a header cable so
it would be possible to do it without
having to run a cable out and back in[2].

I'm rather stuck though at what IR detector to buy atm though, I mean would
Maplin part CH11M be suitable?

Actually looking at it I might get one anyway and have a try as they're only
39p!!

[1] And stick some more LED's behind it to show tuner/recording/backend
status.
[2] Although I have plans to l/c it which would stick big tubes out but
nevermind ;-)
