I think I'm going to buy myself a Terratec Noxon for christmas, to play back my mp3s on the living room stereo.
I don't want to have to run the loud and electricity-wasting main PC all day, so I thought of offloading my mp3s to a dedicated box which would run win2k or xp (since I have absolutely no experience with linux).
This box would need to fulfill these requirements:
- cheap (used old gear off ebay?)
- stable enough to run 24/7
- quiet
- use as little electricity as possible
- maintenance-free
Any suggestions?
