I was thinking of building my parents a XBMC box that downloads as well that could be logged into remotely (by me). They are already familiar with Boxee Box so this wouldn't be that big of a jump.
Requires:
Power button on/off (no kb or mouse or "shutdown" unless that can be a macro on the harmony remote)
SABNZBD+ with remote access and download sorting
Store files to a powered USB drive (WD My Book or similar)
Netflix
Works with a Harmony One remote (IR)
I know Netflix requires Windows and therefore Raspberry Pi isn't enough. I was thinking of getting an Intel NUC, and my local store has "DN2820FYKH" available for $168 (plus RAM, HDD, etc)
Is this enough power?
Would I need an internal drive or just install to a live USB?
Is what I'm asking doable?
