Not yet but I'm planning to. Read the NY Times link above and some of the additional info in the comments. Basically, you can set up a comp to run streaming video to your TV plus run your normal cable feed. There's also some pretty slick software out there that lets you run everything with your remote, but there's numerous ways to run it. And, yes, you can use your HD as a DVR.
Just thought I'd throw this out there, but I have an old desktop hooked up to my TV just to play console emulators and watch movies on.
