Mine has no HDMI out either. I have a DVI to HDMI cable and I'm running digital sound through the digital coax to my receiver. If you have old hardware laying around, make use of it. My first media center ran on a 2.0ghz P4 so the requirements aren't high but if you plan on playing back 1080p MKV's, you'd want at least a hyperthreading P4. The thing's my PVR, music library, video library, blu-ray player, etc...
