I just received an email talking about Boxee for windows alpha. I installed it on my Pc to try it out, but it was really laggy. The interface was pretty nice though. I was considering building a HTPC a few months back, but now that have an incentive to do so, i was thinking "why not". However, i don't want a traditional HTPC in the sense that I just want the basic features. I just want to cut the crap and make an HD streaming PC. A main feature is the Netflix Streaming, so i can't do ubuntu. Its inevitable that Netflix Streaming will be avaliable on windows soon.
My wants:
-Boot Windows Xp from a flash drive.

-Cut the crap(as in no hard drive, disc drive, unnecessary functions)
-Have as little fans as possible.
-Control it through my harmony 520.(which will probably require me to internally embed an usb ir adaptor)
-Be as small as possible.
-Be able to run 1080p video.
-Under $300.
Is this even possible, or am i just dreaming?
