“There's no better way to save space than to combine several functions into one device, and that's exactly what a media center is for. This one (M2000) lets you watch TV and movies, burn CDs and DVDs, play video games, write term papers, surf the Net, play music, and more. And with 512MB of RAM, a 2.86-GHz Pentium 4 processor, and a 160GB hard drive, it has enough storage and power to work as hard as you do.”
