I'm looking at setting up a dedicated media box (running Freevo of course), and am looking at the VIA EPIA Mini-ITX boards. From what I've read, the EPIA M 1000 (DDR, Nehemia core) will take any (within reason) multimedia playback task assigned it. However, it seems to be a fairly large chunk more expensive than the older EPIA 1000 (SDR).
How well does the older model stack up to the newer one? Will it still be able to handle high quality DivX's and the like, or is it really worth forking out the extra to get the M-range, DDR, Nehemia core? What other feature differences are there between the two classes of boards that may effect purchase choice? (TV Out quality? On-board feature differences?) Thanks... -- .
