“The Boxee has been built with a simple goal in mind. Its
creators say that “a lot of your favorite shows and movies are
already available on the Internet. Boxee is a device that finds
them and puts them on your TV. It’s easy to use and even better,
there’s no monthly fee”. That’s the phrase that can be found on
Boxee’s homepage. Boxee has been an early player that has generated
a lot of buzz in the “Media Center” circle. The project has started
as a software platform that can be installed on a PC, Mac or Linux
computer. The main downside of that is that this becomes a fairly
expensive proposition. The Boxee Box was brought to market to
provide a hardware platform capable of running the Boxee software –
for $199. Try to beat that by building your own computer. Now the
question is: how does it perform, and how can it help you today?
Let’s take a look.”
