We use Sun Rays at home. Our hybrid solution is for the kids to have a Playstation2 + Sun Ray sharing a monitor and speakers. The PS2 is much more reliable for games than any PC. They are connected via a box that turns the PS2 signal to VGA. The box also has TV functionality if you connect an aerial. The only need for a PC is for the oldest who wants to record electric guitar and do music composing/editing. Regards Dave PS Just connected a Sun Ray in the kitchen as well. _______________________________________________ SunRay-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sunray-users
