Linux MCE looks hot


Take the leap to watch a demonstration of the Linux MCE project running on a home TV, and a comparison to Windows Media Center Edition.

Apple's ITV is in for some serious trouble if this is the kind of project the FOSS community can turn out.

While I must admit I was impressed with the video. More research and development is needed.

Here is a link to the developer's wiki: http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/History

More people need to join the project and a project manager needs to be chosen for this project to compete with either Apple or Microsoft's products.

Also I am not so sure that Ubuntu is the best OS choice for this project but that is just my opinion.

I think I will contact the developers and see how I can help out.
