Timothy over at Using Windows Home Server has chronicled how he built a low powered computer to record TV streams from his SiliconDust HD Homerun tuners on a Friday night. He whipped up this bad boy using a Cooler Master Elite 100 Case ($70) and other obvious essential HTPC parts. What I like most about this build is that it mounts underneath a desk (or other cabinetry). This provides a minimal effect and allows you to add a HTPC to your existing setup without looking out of place or obtrusive. Read more about this $230 HTPC build at Using Windows Home Server.
