Intel and Philips are working together to build and market home entertainment centers that will run on Intel processors, the chipmaker said at IFA, the International Consumer Electronics Fair, in Berlin. Both personal computer makers and consumer electronics manufacturers have been touting centralized home media centers, but the question is whether consumers really want the devices. The Philips Showline Media Center will contain a card that creates two tuners, so TV viewers can watch two shows or watch one and record another.
