I'm actually quite surprised how good it sounds on the majority of my
music. 

I foolishly decided to do a 7.5.1 upgrade on my main SBS before
purchasing but hadn't realised it would take that long to install so I
gave up after an hour of 'Create Directories' but then couldn't get SBS
to run again! I must admit by laptop running SBS is a PIII with hardly
any RAM and is long due for replacement athough it is very stable with
SBS running a Duet with two receivers and one boom. I did have some
weird network problems occasionally but they were eventually solved
with by replacing the Powerline adapter at the latop.

Anyway, I reinstalled XP and then put on 7.5.1 (very quick to install),
got iTunes back on, imported my tracks and have done two full scans
since in SBS and I'm now finally enjoying some music on the Radio. 

My prime reason for purchasing was for the odd B-B-Q outside (UK based)
and as a table top unit for when I'm working and don't want the full
Hi-fi on so not to wake the baby or annoy the wife. I find it slightly
amusing that the Radio interface seems to be completely lifted from the
Duet controller and even the startup times seem similiar. I think the
Boom has the advantage on speed of UI and boot up time and of course
sound quality (I'm always surprised how good the Boom sounds). 

I won't be using an alarm (I have a baby for that) and unlikely to be
on MySB.com so I don't expect any problems. Just need to purchase a
battery....
