I'm interested in the following;

Given the following assumptions 1-4:
1) The drive is just a USB2 HD-DVD drive and can read HD-DVD just fine when connected to MCE2005/Vista and it is $200 or less.

2) Intervideo and/or Cyberlink HD-DVD playback software becomes readily available and is not prohibitively expensive

3) HDMI/DVI-HDCP video cards become readily available and you can walk into blah retailer and pick one up off the shelf.

4) cases 1-2-3 all actually work and allow fairly easy setup of an HD-DVD 1080P playback HTPC.

then the poll chioces are

94 votes thus far

33 (35.1%) [A] Would buy the Xbox 360 HD-DVD addon for use with my WINMCE2005/VISTA box

22 (23.4%) [B] Would buy the Xbox 360 HD-DVD addon for use with my Xbox 360

19 (20.2%) [C] Would buy one for both

20 (21.3%) [D] Don't care
