I'm blown away that you can load up and run with this. Isn't SABnzbd pretty RAM intensive? Are you doing this with local storage or networked storage? Does this handle 1080p, or are you running mostly 480 media?

I'm full of questions on this subject mainly because I've been holding out on purchasing a Pi for this exact application until they come with a bit more power.

Yep runs 1080p absolutely fine! You need a very lightweight theme without many animations though.

I used one of my many old internal PC hard drives and bought a £10 case to convert it to USB.

Is there a good forum/site with information with notes on what does and doesn't work for different setups, settings, themes, etc.?

edit: Nevermind, I saw your post below and realized that OpenELEC is a full on media center distro. Thanks!!
