What are all of these Pingback messages? They look like spam postings.

Yes, as long as HP lets you configure that PC with the 7300 it will work fine for using via the Xbox 360.

When you suggest getting the 8500 over the 8400 you're forgetting people like me that have no need of *any* TV out, whether it's HD or otherwise. I do all my Media Center viewing via my 360 and all I really want is an HD tuning and recording box, with all viewing done via my 360 on my 50" plasma.

My only real question is, even if I went with the 7300LE could I still use the CableCard to record in HD yet stream it to my XBox?

This is the most irksome issue with the whole certification process, people like me that want the cheapest, barebones CableCard-capable recording server can't build our own, instead we have to wait for someone to decide to cater to the niche market and make it for us.

Yes, it was $560 before but IIRC they dropped that from the last configuration may before they dropped CableCARD. Either they were selling it for the wrong price or this is a different drive. The m8100y is too new to look up what part it is using.

The dual format HD-DVD/Blu-ray drive is more expensive though. Wasn't it originally $500? Now it is $725.
