Imitation Is The Sincerest Form of Flattery

 

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I guess that stays true for LinuxMCE. This has got to be one of the funniest videos that I have never seen, even though I didn’t watch the whole thing. Niall put together a good overview relating to Media Center.

"LinuxMCE is a free, open source add-on to Ubuntu including a 10' UI, complete whole-house media solution with pvr + distributed media, and the most advanced smarthome solution available. It is stable, easy to use, and requires no knowledge of Linux and only basic computer skills"

Great concept, too bad it falls short from what they want it to be. It’s to bad today is not April 1^st, because if it was this post would be titled “Switching to LinuxMCE”
