HP MCPC Series

HP includes lots of nifty extras in their Media Center PCs, including Media Card slots and optional storage bays.

Supports a removable, hot-swappable hard drive ; Media Center OS has a great interface for outputting to TV ; Wireless keyboard, mouse and remote control provide freedom ; 9-in-1 media card reader for quick tranfer of photos
