A Look at My Media Center PC (Asus A55VJ Halftop) - December 2022

Since I got a free TV, it's time to make a media PC but instead of building a PC inside a SFF case or buying used SFF office PC, I decided to use my old Asus A55VJ laptop for this, so I saved some money by reusing my old laptop for media PC.
