XBMC 10.0 ‘Dharma’ now available to download with improvements galore, add-on manager and Apple TV support

You may have gifts for every family member under your Yuletide tree, but we’re willing to bet you haven’t given much thought to your trusty media center PC. Thankfully, the open-source community once again has a ready-made present, ready to be loaded right now — the 10.0 release of XBMC , filled with goodies and toys. It’s available for Windows, Linux, Mac and even the original Apple TV, and brings a brand-new add-on manager that lets you extend functionality and improve appearance right from the UI. There’s also hardware acceleration for every platform, including special consideration for nettops sporting NVIDIA ION 2 or Broadcom Crystal HD chips, and even the underpinnings of support for Windows 7 touchscreens, ARM processors and OpenGL ES 2.0. The catalog of improvements is honestly rather staggering, so rather than read them all here, you can follow our source links to the full changelog and download pages, while we try to spread the Christmahanukwanzaakah cheer.
