As its so think that SC needs a lot of power of the main processor. Maybee its better to wait for the next generation of Multimediaplayers, when they have arround 1.2 - 1.6 GHZ. You can read in different threads when People change SC from their NAS to a mini PC like EEE-BOX. Its not noisy, take only arround 8.- Euro/Year of Energy if its runs 7/24. I did placed mine in the kitchen and have an additional Squeezeplayer. In fact with a little monitor and cheap boxes like xtreamer you have realy a multimedia solution, what fits your needs. 500 GB harddisk in each and integrate in the network let you things like a NAS forget. In the main room than a solution like transporter and you are in a high definition quality and do not need to make a lots of compromise with quality and navigation of a A110 or a C200. For me i did decide no more to make any compromise just to have all in all in one solution. -- arztde ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arztde's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29528 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66276
