Streaming Media Center to 360

I've completed my installation and configuration of my XP MCE 2005 OS and communicated with the 360 in my living room. The process was very simple, once I got MCE to install properly...damn usenet kiddies. ;) However, my install is through a wireless home network, so I hope to see how the quality is to stream HD.

I've already tested a few small clips from the Matrix 1080i and experienced some pretty harsh particle effects. I'm hoping by tweaking my wireless connection and making sure my PC is running at open resources I can achieve a fairly close to perfect HD experience. In that vein, I've subscribed to a new newsgroup, alt.binaries.hdtv. ;)

If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns about my project please feel free to leave a comment.

Ok, they didn't, but they should. Depending on which part of the world you live in, Blu-Ray may have been the ruling force in HD media, especially Australia. However, in the latest turn of events, HD-DVD is back on the scene bringing new players and a cheaper price. But why?
Back From the Smokeys
This past week I spent from Saturday to Saturday down in the Smokey Mountains. While there I got hitched, ate, drank, and was merry. Everything was done, was done at the pace my wife and I wanted. Therefore, the wedding lasted 8 mins and the rest of the time was
