This works very well, as the machine is quiet, energy efficient and unobtrusive, i.e., it blends well into our home. I exchanged the internal HD with a bigger disk (which was very easy to do) and added an external 1 terabyte USB HD to have enough space for backups and media files. This works very well for streaming audio files in combination with the Logitech Squeezebox/Slimserver. However, it’s a bit underpowered for video streaming.2) I set up the second (black) machine as a hackintosh for my kids as they use Macs at school. This was quite easy and works well enough for this purpose.Of course the installed Xandros Linux system may also be suitable for your needs, but I had no use for it. The main reason for buying the Linux vrsoien was to avoid buying an additional XP Home license that I did not need.
