[slim] Web Interface with control of multiple devices?

2009-11-01 Thread twynne
As I'm now up to 5 SB devices, I'm wondering if there's a web interface that makes it easier to interact with all of them at once (ie. without selecting each individually from a drop-down menu to adjust power/volume). I'm thinking of something like the iPeng player screen, but ideally integrated

I'm a Windows guy, too, but I don't see a problem with Apple much. My question is why run SBS on the latest version of Windows if it adequately runs on practically nothing. Do most of you folks share your work computer with SBS or do you have a dedicated server computer in a closet somewhere?
