So here is my FreeBSD media center.
Asus A8N, Athlon X2 4800+, Geforce 7200 I just login with ssh, start tmux, xinit, start a new shell, setenv DISPLAY, and use mplayer. Who needs xbmc?  Total costs: €0.

At least he's prepared for the end of the world, just knock his media centre off it's foundation and run like hell.

You should always know where your towel is, but keep backup towels around just in case.

 I'm still not sure what I will use it for, I just installed 8.2 and I will track stable. I have been away from BSD for a few years but came back since I have Sparc boxes now. Amazingly, NetBSD doesn't run on my servers but OpenBSD and FreeBSD do so I installed them both. Now, where did I put my earplugs?

At the moment the original Raspberry Pi Model B, trying to get it working on my Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, might shrink my Win8 install and get FreeBSD on the second partition.

The BigZ box
This is a serious necro-bump but the thread is open so...
HP z800 2 6-core Xeons at 2.8 ghz, hyperthreaded (24 cores) 24 GB DDR3 ram 2 Samsung 850 Pro SSDs (512GB) 1 Samsung 850 Pro SSD (256GB) 1 WD Black (?) spinning disk for backups (2TB) Nvidia GTX560 It's not new (2010?) but has so much power, replacing it with something like a modern i7 quad would still be a step backwards.
