Media PCs and home theater PCs (HTPCs) are more popular than ever, and their popularity seems to continually increase. HP has sold a ton of media center PCs over the past year. Many of us won't buy prebuilt machines though; we only build our own, usually to save money, use better components, or have fun. The DIY (do-it-yourself) HTPC crowd tends to be a very discerning bunch. They want very specific features in their TV tuners, sound cards and cases. When you build a PC with certain purposes in mind, it requires more careful planning and consideration.
