All I want is an all-in-one multimedia PC, a keyboard that doubles as a remote control, then I can use my laptop for all the mobile stuff.

Why do I need all these cables, I want to switch on my PC/TV press a button then watch TV or press another button then surf the net. All from a layed back position.

Is this to much to ask.
