Aaah, JJZolx somewhat agrees with me, in his inimitable, charming way! So JJ, what is the investment required for a reliable 24x7 server? Is there such a thing without becoming an IS tech? I just don't understand why Slimserver has to be any more complicated to use than a wireless router. Heck, I don't even know what half the screens inside that user interface do! -- nicketynick Wireless SB3, Denon DRA-F101, Mission M31 loudspeakers WinXP SP2 Slimserver, SMC WBR14g router http://www.last.fm/user/nicketynick/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicketynick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1511 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36385 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
