Hi,
I'm a long time XBMC user. I am running Live on a couple of nettops and have been pretty satisfied with everything. I just got a slim line blu ray player and would like to be able to play the occasional disk I don't have time to push to the server or what not (now that the latest build support blur ray disk and .iso playback). Obviously Linux won't work for me but windows should (I have anydvdHD to do the decryption).
I have copies of both Vista ultimate and Win 7 lying around and I'm wondering which would be better. I think the Vista is 32bit and the Win 7 is 64
Hardware is going to be a acer Revo 1600 with 4gb RAM. Acer external bluray player. Almost all my media is going to be streamed from a NAS.
Any help or tips would be nice. i've got XBMC up on my main desktop as a testbed and it seems to work quite well (the netflix streaming is a nice benefit as well).
Thanks
M
