I use XBMC on a actual xbox for media duties, and I have for a while.
For my needs, its pretty much perfect - decodes all
standard-definition content that I throw at it (codecs and such) and
has a *very* slick interface that works nicely with my Foxtel
programmable remote. If there's any interest, I'll bring my 24"
monitor (because it has component input) and my Xbox along to the AGM
for a quick demo.

Regards,

Scott
