The D-Link interface is perfectly usable, but did you really believe that a PC owner is going to switch to a Mac platform because Apple TV has a nicer interface? And, the D-Link box is just one of many such devices for Windows (and they have a new draft-N box, too).
iLife apps are nice, but worry not because Windows users are making due just fine without them.

But it does support a wider range of codecs.I can't tell anything from the link about the user interface software.
