3. What kind of dish or other things do i need.
4. Can you put a harddisk in this reciever (for putting movies on it like MKV,Divx files and whats the max output 1080p?).
5. I have seen on a forum that soemone had 12 LNB'S installed on his dish i also want to know how do you get this done i don't want 12 LNB's but i realy like to recieve as many channels as i can so how many lnbs do i need and how to install them on my dish what other things do i need.
6. i have reading about flashing your Dreambox with images and stuff can seomone please give me more nfo about that and hou this can be done and you have to do this for getting the free paid channels.

LOL you need to do alot of reading before you buy a dreambox mate from the questions your asking and always remeber you get nothing for free in this world.

If i was you id spend a couple of weeks reading up on dreamboxes and linux boxes before forking out the dosh.

Trust me
