I got AlienBBC working on a Linkstation but note that it is the HG
version which has a faster processor and more memory. I haven't seen
any reports of anyone getting it working on a standard one.

Note also that there have been quite a few reports of users bricking
their HG linkstations when attempting to update the firmware - which is
required to gain telnet access. See the linkstationwiki.org forums for
details.

For my music collection I always stream FLAC which means the
Linkstation doesn't have to do much. I don't know if it's capable of
Apple Lossless decode. Slimserver control via its webpage isn't that
great with a Linkstation but adequate for me since I hardly ever
control the squeezebox via that route.

All in all I'm pretty happy with it - but if I were you (or I was
starting again from scratch) I'd probably explore some of the small
form factor, low power PC's that are available.

Hope this helps

Paul.
