What is the Ultimate TV/PC setup?

Sony type X

Our head says no, but heart says yes, yes to Sony’s latest ultramodern media PC, the VGX-X90P (which better not stand for “eXtreme” or we’re giving up), which comes with 7, count ‘em, 7 TV tuners, up to 1.6 terabytes of storage (half for the PC and half for storing video), a 3.6GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, a 128MB video card, and a DVD+-R/RW drive. Here’s the scary part: this bad boy retails for nearly five grand. And to go along with your new media PC you can’t afford (and also can’t buy except in Japan), Sony also announced a couple of companion pieces in the type X series, a matching digital HDTV tuner (the VGX-X90PS) and a 23-inch HDTV, the VGP-D23HD1.
