Hi Keith.
I'm currently at the same stage as yourself. My hi-fi is getting a bit
battered now and I'm thinking of buying a new one. However, I listened to a
demonstration of the Windows XP Media Center version on the Blind Cool Tec
site at: http://www.blindcooltech.com/ When you get to the site search for a
link titled "Media Center Demo" by a Mr. Larry Skutchan.
This demo introduces you to a piece of equipment which includes a computer,
television, radio, cd player and dvd video player/recorder, all in one
package.
As I listen to most of my music via my computer, hard-wired to my hi-fi, I
am obviously very interested in this new technology, but I'm still a bit
concerned about accessibility using jaws.
I'm actually very surprised that very little discussion regarding media
centres has been seen on this list and would very much welcome advise from
list members on this subject.
I've got some money coming soon and want to upgrade my hi-fi. But if I can
have TV and Video built in then I'd probably be better buying a media
centre, but as I said above, I'd hate to spend all that cash and find out
that I could not access all the centres facilities.
Best wishes.
Andy.
P.S Keith did you train in Forfar about 14 years ago with me?

Hi Listers
Most of my Hi Fi/Audio Equipment is starting to fall apart and, therefore,
I
am looking to replacing most of it with something more modern.
I am aware of the Portset Digital Media Centre and it appears to provide
many of my requirements. However, some facilities, such as DVD, are
missing
at the moment. Accordingly, is there any other equipment available NOW
which
provides similar or more than the Portset Product and, if so, who do I
contact?
Best Wishes,
KEITH ROTHWELL
