Connecting the home

It has long been promised that the PC will become the entertainment hub of the home. However, the problem with this vision is that our computers tend to sit in the bedroom and means getting those movies, music and pictures the last few metres to the living room is a real pain.
This year's CES - the world's largest consumer gadget show - boasts a wealth of new kit which aims to make it easier to access digital media around the home - and in particular on TV screens. Ideas on what should be at the centre of it all vary, from PC-based media centres, digital video recorders or even video game consoles.Microsoft is promoting its Xbox 360 as the place to store and access movies and songs.
