I use that setup exactly on my TV (frontend / backend combo) and IONs
around the house.  I have a hard time watching TV on the IONs practically -
due to the menu speeds and fanart loading times when scrolling movies,
etc..  It is well worth it if you keep it quiet.  I could never go back to
a slow frontend again..
