Starting this to get some sort of tracking of what hardware the users of openELEC are having. Also, please share your experiences so far with openELEC.

All feedback is appreciated :)

Shuttle XS35GT, (cheap) Samsung 2.5" 500gig HD, Team 2gig memory, Sony DVD-R slimline, 40 inch Samsung HDTV, Marantz surround receiver.

As told before, my startup is around 18 seconds (not official yet ;)). Sound and image are very good, only with Prince of Persia (MKV file, 1080P, DTS) I hade some stutters (only in the video, sound was ok) in a few scenes. I'm going to find out if that was just the file or a lack of memory.
A thank you is nice, but a donation is more needed ;)
Thanks in advance!!

Asrock ION330 HT.

Almost been there with openelec when it was born ;)
The last year I worked really close with pucky to test a lot of changes, and always discussed a lot new features and issues. Pucky also calls me his b*ch so I think my opinion about openelec is clear enough ;)

Running OpenElec on a Foxconn NT-330i here. 4GB RAM and 128GB SSD.

Everything worked very well out of the box except the menu audio played over the internal speaker. Easy asoundrc fix.
Splash also does not display properly(but that's nv driver issue)

The box outputs 7.1 audio (dts pass-through, mostly) and 1080p video over hdmi to Onkyo HT-S6300 which passes video on through to Samsung PN50A650 50" plasma.
