They're entirely different devices. A dedicated SC box needs a lot more processing power, a lot more memory and a LOT more storage than a touch - it does a completely different job. You seem to think that combining a PC and a SBR into one box will somehow cost substantially less than the cost of the PC plus the cost of an SBR, or that the resulting device will somehow be simpler, smaller, quieter or more power efficient. I don't see how that can be the case. -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43198 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
