Correcting me how?

wikipedia posted:

Plex (also known as "Plexapp" or "Plex Media Center"

is a partially open-source freeware media player with a 10-foot user interface, which is available for Intel-based Macintosh computers and computers running Microsoft Windows.[1] Its source code was initially forked from XBMC Media Center on May 21, 2008; this fork is used today as a front end media player for Plex's back end server component.[2][3][4]

I have no idea which wikipedia you use, but on one I use, it says:

"XBMC was originally created as a media center application for the first-generation Xbox game
console but is now, since 2010, officially available as a native application for Linux, Mac OS X
(Snow Leopard, Leopard, Tiger), iOS (iDevices that are jailbroken), Apple TV, and Microsoft
Windows operating systems, running on most common processor architectures.[23] Also available
is a bootable Live CD and Live USB standalone version referred to as "XBMC Live" which is made
for easy setup on bare-metal installations and to be used for interactive demonstrations"

What's your setup?

I don't recall the exact tech specs offhand. I bought a component style case and low heat/low noise hardware. I used a 50Gb SSD for the Windows partition and 2 mirrored 1TB WD hard drives for data. I added a flat indoor antenna in the basement and hooked it to my existing coax. I use Windows Media Center to DVR network TV and to access my personal media. I use Media Monkey to organize music. I use HippoRemote on my iPhone to control the HTPC and Remote Potato server to access media remotely. We have Netflix streaming and basic Hulu. I also use Clicker TV for finding shows. Anything I can't get I DL with Sabzband. I use my old WD worldbook as a backup server.
