HP Pavillion Media Center PC's - opinions?

Need to replace my system and dont' have the time or patience to build up a system from scratch again. Thinking more about a media center pc that I could put in the bedroom and get another DirecTV drop to. Use it for watching tv as well as mild gaming, recording, etc. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the HP systems. They seem like a pretty good deal and have decent HD 22 and 24" lcds.

 

You're gonna need plenty of "time & patience" when the proprietary, overpriced, piece of HP junk breaks down. Build your own, hell it only takes one day and you'll have quality components that wont break the minute you fart! BUT, it's your money.
