I`ve placed an order for a top end Zino Hd, which should arrive sometime this month (or possible this year).

I`ll be running linux and xbmc etc. but obviously the HD hardware decode with this setup is problematic as the AIT card isn`t properly supported. but it appears to have a mini pcie slot, so I`m wondering if I can swap out the wireless card (not needed), and swap in a Crystal HD card.

In principal this should sort out HD decoding under linux nicely..

Anyone know if this is feasible ?

Should work.

Hmmm looking at some pictures on the web I`m suspecting the HD card is full height and the Zino only has space for a half height one, though it`s hard to tell.

Is a full since mini pcie card.

Personally, i would drop the order and get an ion based box

Good call, well shockingly Dell pushed delivery back till the end of February! Screw that.

I`ve ordered a Silverstone SG06B, Core i5 661, and will get a Zotac H55 when it comes out, will cost about the same as the ZinoHD, but way more powerful, and there`s room for a dedicated pci-e gfx card if the mood takes me.
