I hooked up my amp and projector to the computer in my home office, using a 50' HDMI cable from Monoprice for the video and USB repeater cables strung together for a second keyboard and mouse. While the setup was temporary, it was so nice to be without fan noise that I decided to put my new HTPC in the listening room closet. So I put in some conduit and a false molding so I don't trip over the cables, and also conduit and a hollowed-out baseboard in the hall so I could put a second keyboard and monitor in my office and eliminate the fan noise there as well.
I also found that I enjoyed surfing while I listened, I could read about the piece I was listening to, or check out a newspaper or magazine. And it occurred to me that since most of my work no longer involves paper, I could do most of my office work in my listening room, where I could enjoy the big speakers. The only downside I've found so far is that it robs me of an excuse to get a pair of Mini Maggies for my office . . .
