HD DVD H.264 10.3Mbps compression testing. Test completed in 0:04:05 on 720p/24 clip of duration 0:01:27. H.264 is a very processor intensive codec... love it... anything to feed the beast. Octopussy loves codecs. Compressor 3 is very optimized for multi-processors... this test was using up 99.9% of total processing power before I ran the screen capture.

Replaced a Mac Mini as a dedicated media center, iTunes and iPhoto library, video editing and converting as well as a non-stop downloading beast.

This took some firmware editing to pull off (Not by me personally, I just traversed the firmware universe and toyed around trying to find something that I could use).

This picture was part of my portfolio for college. We had to create an Era Look, so my look was inspired by the movie Grease!
