Hi guys. I'm a total noob when it comes to XBMC and want to buy a set up from ebay/amazon etc. Can anyone give me any pointers to what I should look out for when purchasing a box.

I live in the UK.

what are your requirements?

* energy-saving?
* Noise Level?
* Size?
* Cost?
* Android/Windows/Linux ?
* Live TV?
* NAS, external HDD or Streaming?
* will you play Animes (hi10 1080p flac), Or other heavy stuff.
* gaming

last but not least ... your Skills in case of build your own Media-center?
network, Terminal and config skills?

if you're not sure what do you want, take a look at http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Devices

in my humble Opinion I love the nuc series http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Intel_NUC ... I own by myself an i5 Haswell with an fanless case ... enough power for everything by only 12Watt (Its too much for only an HTPC Wink )
but this has an price ... 400-500Euro (320-450£)
