I know that Apple is releasing the AppleTV sometimes next month, but as far as I know, it runs off Quicktime/iTunes...which means that there is no (easy) way to switch language tracks.
I have a lot of movies and TV shows on my computer (I'm running OS X) and I'd love to be able to watch them on my TV, rather than on my monitor.
I'm also not interested in something like Windows Media Center PCs, as that is too complicated for what I want to do. I'm looking for something simple and requires minimal effort to access.
I've seen things like Slingbox but, near as I can tell, that does the opposite of what I want.
Aside from AppleTV, are there any devices out there that enable me to send media from my computer's hard drive to be viewed on my screen?

if you have a dvi or svga port on both your mac and tv, you just plug it in!
That's what I do! then it's a second monitor and you can show anything on it!
I won't be buying an APPLE TV... my eye tv + quicktime + dvd player make an awesome combo!

I do this with my Tivo. Probably not what you are looking for.............. I copy all the DVDs I get via Netflix to my PC so I can watch them whenever. I use the Tivo menu to access my harddrive to play the movies.
I also do this with my video iPod with pod casts.
