Hello, IMHO, running Freevo in a XBox is cool, kind of a Victory against Microsoft. However it's stupid in the point of benefits/price.
Ok, it may come in a "beautiful" small case and it plays video-game. However, it would be better to buy a Wallmart cheap (199) Duron and a Matrox G200. You can make your own case if you want that. But notice, this kind of thing could be hidden somewhere. Also, people are testing those shuttle, capuccino and other small case based computer... search for it in the mail lists Gustavo --- Aubin Paul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escreveu: > Like anything else, we won't be able to confirm something until > someone writes back with a tested platform. > > Some people have mentioned trying it in the past, but I haven't heard > anything positive or negative about the Xbox. > > I just wonder if it's price/form benefit is reduced by the difficulty > of adding things like a tv tuner card, or a hard drive.
