I've just converted my music collection - hundreds upon hundreds of CDs 
and vinyl - to MP3 and stored them all on a hard drive inside a PS2 (the 
cheapest and fastest media centre option without resorting to a PC in 
the living room).

It seems odd that the massive hi-fi system and cabinet containing all 
that music is now neatly replaced by one small box. I've now got a big 
corner of my living room back!
