| HP to Sell Linux-Based Home Media Hub |
|---|
Hewlett-Packard plans to start selling a home media hub based on the open-source Linux operating system later this year. The company hopes that the product will replace consumer electronics devices such as VCRs and DVD players in living rooms.
The device will be the industry's first high-definition television (HDTV) media hub, combining the capabilities of HDTV, a digital cable set-top box, and a dual-tuner digital video recorder (DVR), HP said in a statement. Users will be able to store and manage digital photos, music, TV, and video on the media hub.
