This comment seems to me to be from a person who has made a smart comment which is completely out with my experience as a typical user. I don't look for problems. My slimserver/SB works well and is better than some pieces of hardware/software on XP. On Linux which is now my preferred OS the experience was involving and I can't see where the large number so called bugs are. I saw a slight problem with the top part of the web page on Konquerer, but the Firefox experience is nothing short of excellent. The system works superbly at playing music. I regard the web interface as a fantastic and well designed way to use the system. I find the design better than any other music playing software and I have tried many including WMP, nero, winamp etc al. Sean your device is great and, believe it or not, has helped convince me of hope for the future in that there are helpful people all over the world even in the state of Arne.
