Adam Pash at Lifehacker has a passion for HTPCs – especially those of the open-source variety, so it will come as no surprise that he’s put together a very nice HTPC build driven by the excellent XBMC Media Center software.

The Lifehacker guide takes a cheap, nettop and converts it into a silent, set-top XBMC that will fit into just about any room in the home.  This is a must-read guide for those interested in HTPC’s even if you don’t use XBMC, he did a great job with the build so check out the XBMC set-top at Lifehacker
