I've been reading the forums for a while now and had built a big tower a few years ago for my office that also doubled as my HTPC. But I've gotten tired of switching between the office and living room set up and am now building a dedicated HTPC.
Below are the specs of what I've got on order.
But one thing that's got me stumped is the remote/mouse/keyboard. Currently I've got the Logitech K800 that lights up in my office and the Logitech Performance MX mouse and their both great. I had been using Bluetooth before but had to many interference issues. So now I use a Dell (but it's really a Logitech) Bluetooth multimedia keyboard, Logitech Dinovio Media Pad and a Gyration remote mouse. These are all a few years old and I find the Gyration mouse remote to be a pain to use.
Anyone tried either of these:
Cideko Air Keyboard Wireless Media Keyboard & Gyro Mouse
Superior Loftek Rii Touch N7 Mini Wireless Keyboard
New Build on order:
