Hi Ray

I'm in the process of sorting my Dad's new Sony out with this on the weekend, the key seems to be you need an IR blaster cable to run from pc to the sky box for your MCE controller to work fully.

Will begiving this ago on Saturday.

What troubles have you been having?

Sony's VGC-LT Series VAIO http://www.pluginz.com/news/5939

This is a really nice bit of kit little under powered for the price and my likeing aprox £1000+ very thin all in one HD PC / TV with 22inch screen and built in blu-ray Disc.

Expensive but nice!
