AppleTV - Who Ordered One?

by brocknation - 3/15/07 7:18 AM

I ordered one and can't wait for it! Who else did?

Just curious who wants one despite nasty rumors that say consumers would not spend the money on this type of device.

I know I've been dying to have something to bring the content from my iTunes or iPod to the TV for years now. Way to go Apple! :)

I plan on getting one I just have to figure out how to get around the WIFE. We just added our 4th Tivo to the house and 2 new computers so how do I convince her I need this. Then in the fall I want the Microsoft server. So does anyone have any idea how to sneek this one by her. I mean it is not like she is not a geek also.

Me!

My family likes movies and tv shows, and my dad does a bunch of crap to watch them together... but he's not very good at it... he makes dvd's of South Park episodes mixed in with Seinfeld or w/e... me and my brothers love House and I love Family Guy/South Park and so on... So since I have a 120 GB external HD im not using, I hooked that up to our family Mac Mini, and we'll stream of that now.

Solves everyone's problems!

When rumors come true

by Chris_Fon - 3/17/07 1:07 PM In reply to: Me! by Alegoo92

In the UK, there is no itunes movie store, and i dont have a video ipod, so i have no immediate reason to get one.

However, if the rumor that you can use it to stream the computer screen on a Mac running Leopard is true, i probably will purchase it along with a Macbook once Leopard is released!!

Eventually

I need to put together an Intel Mac Mini, and do a few upgrades. What I would really like is some close integration with an EyeTV type of product, so that my recordings from TV will be batch processed into the MPEG4 specs that Apple TV prefers. It needs to be a bit more seamless. I really want to use it as a PVR type of box - I think that this sort of solution will come in the next few months from developers.
