I ordered a prebuilt Hannibal system from tvease.net that came with a
Microsoft remote. I went to their site to find the model, but turns
out they've gone bankrupt... can't say I'm surprised based on my
experience.

Any way, I'm pretty sure this is the remote:

And I'm quite happy with it; though I really do need to make a Debian
swirl to replace the little windows logo...

Info about setting it up is here:
