Very few use remote desktops to control a server. A web browser is not the same as a remote desktop and you know that. You can not control the Linksys from a web browser. You can't run VNC on a PSP or Nokia770. > > Im exhausted saying the same thing over and over: "the attraction to > SB3 is its opensource software", but apparently discussing where it > could expand is not acceptable on this forum. you and mr. snarly > really are trying to redefine "opensource" by shooing away any > suggestions. > And you're definining "opensource" as "Please make this conform to my needs, even if it's not yours. You owe me." My interest in writing device drivers for Windows is less than zero. My interest in dragging around a laptop in order to control my music is less than zero. That's not what Open Source is. Hint: "Show me the code." The attraction to the Squeezebox is, for me: great sound quality, no need for a PC (including laptops, since for you a laptop isn't a PC) to be in my listening areas, centralized music storage (so I have access to the same library in the living room, bedroom, office and work), and it needs to run on Linux: I will never trust Windows for a server. If you're exhausted, then, please, go to the Linksys forums and tell them about all the stuff in the Linksys you don't like and demand that they shape it the way you want it. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21466 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
