deffo the dogs, it is ridiculously nice when it works smoothly, and xbmcbuntu has a stripped down version of ubuntu in it so you can use the tv for web browsing/email ect. With raspberry pi coming soon you should be able to strap xbmc on the back of every tv in the houseXBMC is the dog's wotsits. It's one of those projects that concentrates more on power and features than ease of use and installation, but the effort pays dividends.
A good way to check it out would be to get the Sabayon live DVD (http://www.sabayon.org/) which includes XBMC. I use it in conjunction with MythTV as my PVR in the lounge, and on the bedroom XBOX and I love it.
