i was planning to build one of those based on the little falls configuration as both a mini-file server and maybe even download box[1] but my allocated money got wiped when i bought my new toy. there are also reviews that the chipset used for the atom processor is a mismatch since it sips too much power because its design is already antiquated. maybe on the next revision. it always pays to be on the second version wagon. :) [1] the commander-in-chief doesnt want anything non-essential running for too long, which means computers are only turned on when there is a need. for playing, there is always the wii. :( ciao! -- "Programming, an artform that fights back" Anuerin G.
