Sure. I've posted it a few times now.

You will need to pick a different CPU, but any AM2 CPU should get the job
done. Even a single core A64 would work. I've got it running on an X2 3800+
and use about 5% CPU while watching HD streams via VDPAU.

It's not nearly as small as this new ION based machine, but it's a very nice
little box. It even gets wife approval.  It's a little closer to $300, I'm
apparently getting senile. :)
