My 46" LCD TV is my monitor. Touchscreen HTPC seems to be the rage these days. Like this one. Or even this one that might be the best deal out there.

What about the Zotac ION boards? They sure look like a great deal (mobo, cpu, gpu all in one) and are sooo tempting: Newegg

Don't need to be rich to afford that LOL! Please also note that I said I wouldn't use that kind of case. I just linked for reference.

A 1TB HDD seems a bit small for a HTPC (especially for Blu-ray). I'm currently near 2.5 TB, of movies, (only 16GB of music).

Enjoy!
