Buy a good pc with a tv tuner card .. bus .. thats all ... now ... whats ur budget ??

How about setting up one with the Intel Viiv technology?

Intel ViiV would be too costly for an entry level HTPC.

Its better to go for a tv tuner from Compro, a decent 5.1 Speaker system(Logitech X-530), a DVD-ROM or RW and atleast 512MB of RAM. Your HTPC is ready to rock.
