For the record, I have been using Slimdevices products for nearly five years. Got a lot better things to do with my time than read posts like this. By "cheaper displayless SB" do you mean the SBR? If it requires the SBC to use, then it isn't really cheaper, is it? -- djfake --- www.itjerk.com www.progressiverock.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ djfake's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8111 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41813 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
