Ok... this is kind of a "wish list" thing, so bear with me and brainstorm!

I have a HUGE collection of DVDs, so I'd like to back them all up to a big hard drive and then watch them, on my 46" plasma, via the PC.

What I REALLY want to do is buy another pc... all it needs to do is store the files, send it to my tv via hdmi, and if I could surf the net on it as well that would be slick.

I'm also assuming I can configure a PC to deal with zones, like when I decide to run speakers outside or into the bathroom.

Anyone got any ideas? What type of setup should I get? How do I do this?
