Does anyone here have Apple TV
I dont see any threads about Apple TV here. Does anyone have it here? I love my Apple TV. By far the best thing I have ever purchased.

I love mine too. It's a bit clumsy for pirated movies. I have an Apple TV and a WD tv next to each other.
Apple TV for netflix, renting movies, music.
WDTV for watching all my movies on a usb drive.
I know you can jailbreak/xbmc but I'm too lazy

It does have usb input. Micro usb. Pretty useless unless you jailbreak.

My step dad got it for the sole purpose of using the 60" TV as a monitor for his macbook air to watch movies... seems like some other ppl do that too. Only thing I can't understand is why they would pay $100 for that instead of say $20 for adapter that allows you to plug your macbook into the TV?
