OpenELEC Is a Fast-Booting, Self-Updating Version of XBMC for Home Theater PCs

,----[ Quote ]
| OpenELEC aims to make home theater PCs as much like your DVD player as 
| possible, using a lightweight, instant-on version of XBMC that updates itself 
| for a maintenance-free media center.
| 
| We talk a lot about XBMC around here, because it makes a great home theater PC
| âbut it can often take a lot of work to set up. Even if you use XBMC Liveâthe 
| easy-install distribution we used for our silent, standalone XBMC machineâ
| you're essentially installing Ubuntu Linux on your PC with XBMC on top of it, 
| which brings in a lot of software you don't necessarily need. Plus, it can 
| take a bit of work to update the box and fiddle with its configuration. If all 
| you want is a simple media center, OpenELEC makes XBMC's installation and 
| maintenance a snap so you can just get to the good stuff: watching your 
| movies.
