I bought this which means I now have 2x as many HTPCs as I do TVs / Projectors in the house. BNTL ("Buy Now. Think Later") that's the SD way! :)

No one can answer that for you. It really depends on what you watch/ use and how you store your media. For ex. If you just use Netflix then a htpc or even a ps3 is a huge waste of power.

You will have to run a vm with widows to do Netflix on Linux. This CPU would accomplish this poorly.
