Where to buy a prebuilt htpc?

[piston broke]

Hi

Been looking at 'smart' tv's but the lack of a few features and especially a qwerty keyboard is a big sticking point for wifey, so thought I would revisit htpc land
I'm not very tech minded with pc's so where is a good place to buy a one box ready to go system?

This is what has been requested:
Ease of use and stability
Twin Tuners for dtv recording
BD player
HDMI to TV
Optical out to amp
Skype/Browsing

Thanks for the help

depending on how much you want to spend, some of the higher quality ones are:

evolvemedia.co.uk
tranquilpc.co.uk

One of the members here builds and sells machines
Home - Custom built Home Theatre PCs from my-HTPC

great support and you can get something built to your exact requirements

Ditto the above

Also, check out the computer classifieds forums here, if you don't mind second hand. There's always a bargain to be had!

Optical out to amp?

I did'nt know you could do this with an HTPC...

There are motherboards with digital optical out. Gigabyte seem to be dropping support, but asus boards still have it.
