I went with a Samsung blu-ray player that streams netflix. No using the PC
to watch movies.

$350 for that? plus, COD4 is way better on PC than console. And if
Netflix wasn't so stupid in choosing silverlight as their platform this
wouldn't be a problem. I thought they were a smart company until that
boneheaded move. Once I can play silverlight player stuff on linux in
firefox i'll need windows. I hear that COD4 plays well with wine, i just
haven't taken the time to try it yet. So there is hope!

only a couple of reasons that I still have windows installed at home.
1) Netflix

Isn't that what the playstation 3 is for? ;)

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
