With 20 million Xbox 360s already in consumer homes, there's a large
market waiting. When connected, an extender like Xbox and a Media
Center PC automatically find each other over a wired or Wi-Fi
network. "Media Center" appears on the Xbox "Start" menu, allowing
the user to select a video that's on the PC and play it on the TV.

Without Xbox or a Media Center Extender, consumers can only use
TVTonic on the PC. However, some PCs such as one from Niveus are now
designed to go in the "stack" of home entertainment boxes and can be
easily connected to use the TV set as the display. When a consumer
wants to have the PC display on the TV set, he uses the "TV input"
button on the TV's remote control to select the PC for input.
