Big can of worms! If you trade off CPU power for video GPU power and want to run HD, I hear that nVidia with VDPAU support is the way to go. People are watching HD on Atom processors with nVidia video. If you get enough CPU horsepower (4-5GHz), almost any GPU will do. Intel and AMD are playing catch-up to nVidia in the HD marketplace. > anyway, you get the idea. thoughts? > > rday > -- > > ======================================================================== > Robert P.
