I am running a small fanless VIA C7 1 Mhz processor and 1 gig of memory on a mini itx board. Dead quite using a 2.5" laptop hard drive to run windows XP and slimserver on.
All my music is on a 500GB My Book connected via USB. Total cost of less than $500.00 US Have run Inguz on this and it worked but ran the processor at about 80%, and it is something that i did not need in my listening room. To access this machine i have set it to run headless and use windows remote desk top to access it and control it if i need a web interface. Works great. The computer, my book and squeeze box only use a bout 18 watts of power when running. This means that i can leave it on all the time and it is ready for music listening at a moments notice. My regular desktop machine uses about 95 watts at idle and when running uses over 120 watts. This i do not want running all the time.
