I did literally just this last week, with an ITX motherboard, a 65W APU (Trinity), and a case to match. I'm quite pleased with the results, and with Big Picture mode (given it *was still Beta)

Would you consider blogging about this? I'd like to do something similar next year.

I wouldn't mind writing about it, but I don't exactly have a blog. What is a good medium for a one-shot post like that?

Ironically, Medium: http://medium.com.

Otherwise, Tumblr or a gist powered by http://gist.io.

Well guys, here's a first pass:

Is this something I should be submitting to HN directly?

Also, let me know if there's any particular pieces of information you want expanded/shared. I haven't yet had an opportunity for photos or video of use this evening.

(updated with photos and some brief, not-so-HD cams)

Please do submit it; this is a great write-up. :)

Well folks, I don't think we'll be seeing it on the front page. Perhaps I need to work on my titling.

Hopefully those who were interested have already had a chance to read it, by now.

Great write up :)

Google Plus is usually good enough for this kind of stuff

make a quick tumblr and post it there

The post I linked in my OP has a full build guide, if that's what you're looking for.

I'd be interested in hearing about that too. I just ordered parts to build my parents a computer, I'm using it as an excuse to try out a Trinity APU. If I like it I'll look into building an ITX size for myself.

As you may not have seen my further updates, I wrote a short bit:
