First of all let me congratulate you on such a great mag! I have built my system based on many reviews you give every month.

I was particularly interested in the "Build the ultimate home media network"  on your June issue...and I have a question: How viable would be to use a HDXB101 Netgear 200Mbits/sec Homeplug Ethernet Netgear Switch instead of several cables around the house?

I know it would be a bit more expensive as the cheapest I found online is around £104 ex VAT for 2 of the plugs and around £57 ex VAT for each aditional one but in the end buying a good Ethernet switch and meters of cabling wouldn't be much different!

I currently run my PC on a study on the 1st floor, there's an XBox 360 in the house, the laptop in living room and just got a LCD HD TV and a HDD Media center to plug in TV and the wireless is not enough (oh and the PS3 that I'm gonna get more towards the autumn...XBox is my housemate's).

Because I live in kind of an old house, ripping up carpets or drilling holes through the wall wouldn't be in my best interest...nor my landlord's :) and a Homeplug would be useful when I move out to another
house.

Just thought you could have mentioned this on the article or why not a review of this product? This would be great! Maybe if this is a good idea and people start getting to grip with it and buying it prices would start coming down as you see with wireless? Would love to know what you think about this.

Cheers and keep up the great work
