Is it still that much of niche hobby?
Have Nvidea or ATI even released a reasonable cost card that will do bluray that includes a working player?
The new shampoo is an intel iCore3/5 chip and board. Build in HDMI HD Graphics, bitstreams HD audio from the chip (on chip sound) and TMT3 for a blue ray player. Plenty of HP for BR and HDTV, and the rest. You can now forget the Xonar card for bitstreaming and any video card, just need the processor and the mb. (not great for gaming, without add-on video card)
