Not yet. We just bought a laptop with an HDMI port on Boxing Day. Although that would work for streaming movies, I have all my music stored on my Macbook, which doesn't have an HDMI port. So I would have to transfer all of my music files to the laptop and, since my husband mostly uses the laptop, I'm not sure he'd want that. Apple TV would give us the option to be able to stream from either computer...it's that flexibility that I'm looking for.

I'm still open to suggestions if you know of another option for me.
