              Only thing that I can think is missing is H.264 decode assist. And maybe audio over HDMI. Then it would do for the forseeable future.

                  im not really sure about this, havent looked into it much and am a bit of a htpc noobtard but;
                  wouldn't having onboard video defeat the purpose of having an htpc, which is utilizing the excellent cpu/gpu performance for upscaling purposes?
