Wow, as simple as it looks, I’m pretty sure it’s custom done. Or certainly it’s 2 fonts. Hm, that could explain it – you wouldn’t see many fonts with that open space in the g but no open space in the b. Also, you’ll rarely see a “techno” font like that with a normal looking x.
“sling” definitely looks like Bauhaus http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/adobe/itc-bauhaus/ while “box” is nothing like it.
Here’s a free font SF New Republic off dafont.com that looks a lot like “box” (though I think there are a lot of fonts that look like that) http://www.dafont.com/sf-new-republic.font?nb_ppp=50&af=on&text=slingbox
EDIT: I just found Bimini Normal for someone else’s question, and it looks an awful lot like the sling part of the logo and it’s free http://www.newfonts.net/index.php?pa=show_font&id=33
