The Intel Developer Forum (IDF) showcased an Intel PC using a dual core chip playing back media content and streaming different content in a seamless manner to the Xbox 360 for playback on a separate TV simultaneously. Although the Xbox 360 does not have Media Center capabilities on its own, its Media Center Extender allows one to stream content from a Media Center PC to the 360. The 360 is also capable of playing audio via any USB source.
