This HD-theatre is costing me money!!
Since I got this thing, The picture quality on my 60" plasma and my bedroom tv has been so good that I haven't been able to control myself! I have started buying blu-rays to rip! I was able to resist because the picture wasn't that great thru the Client PC's. So now I am spending money on blu-rays and imagine I will be having to upgrade my Harddisks soon.

Thanks very much sage!!! LOL!!!

Welcome to the extender club!

I have to say, though, that the advent of the SageTV extender has saved me money, since I was able to get rid of two HTPC's which I no longer have to maintain.

Yeah but now my wife and kids are wanting B-ray movies, lol.

On a more serious note, I can't beleive the video quality diference between the pc and the extender.
