Enclosed in a fully aluminium case which will fit in with your existing Hi-Fi amplifier or TV, and featuring a VFD status display under mirrored acrylic glass."

A $2000 mac mini PVR???!!! Methinks not. By the looks of it, the mac mini home theater version/flavor would still be in the ballpark of... half that ridiculous number you came up with. The link and various other sites seem to forecast an affordable home theater solution/concept built into the already affordable mac mini (larger HD, TV tuner, remote, Front Row, etc.) in the very near future, all without cables dangling. And I don't think your average couch potato who just wants to record family guy reruns will give a snot if it's "completely open source."
