The alternative is to get a cheap PC, nearly any will work, and run SqueezeCenter on it. Move the music to the cheap PC, or not, keep it on the NAS if you want. Run [EMAIL PROTECTED] on the cheap PC, so you can save the world while it runs all the time. > I would like another option.

I could be wrong, I don't work for SD/Logi. It would be a subset of folks who have a NAS, and it can't cost more than $100 or so, since you can get a cheap PC from craigslist for about that. I think a $400 PC/ripper/disk would be more attractive. I just ordered a one terabyte disk from newegg.com, it was $130. it can't cost much for the basic PC and CD drive. I bought a complete computer fro Newegg for about $500, it had a quad processor, three gigs of ram, and a 500 GB disk. Its massive overkill for running SqueezeCenter. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
