Yes, many people have been using HTPCs to watch HD material (downloaded) for quite some time.

Yep, just waiting for an HD-DVD drive to pop in the HTPC, I hope they arrive soon I've been collecting HD-DVD disks for awhile now and really itching to see them on the projector......

May even end up buying a stand-alone player

Cheers

If you have PC just connect up and play the file.

I have just moved my media centre PC to my office and use an XBOX 360 streaming content to sitting room this is the other option.
