surfisup1000:lyonrouge: Replaced the HTPC with a Mac mini and removed the VMs as there are just too many and they change all the time. Also got my first 32GB machine.
Similar to my setup, but without the offbeat stuff (as/400 etc).
I've got a couple of popcornhours and apple tv's for media distribution - and itunes integrates into the home audio distribution system via a denon 720ae bridge. It works really well, with the exception of my outside speakers.
My stupid amp doesn't output digital signals to the zone 2 out speakers. Why on earth would they block it like this?
PhantomNVD: Thanks for the unlock Frietasm :)
After 13 pages reading, I was keen to share my own 'LAN' as we are so stuck for ADSL connections out here, I'm almost a mini ISP too!
(there are about 16 ADSL1 links for over 120 houses - but the new RBI means theya re prolly NEVER gonna upgrade us, so we SOL for anything fast with a decent cap... and by fast I'd be ecstatic for 5Mbs!
here's my 2c:
All this links up through a sub 1Mb ADSL1 link on a FS/FS 100GB plan of which we use about 75GB per month...
RBI has actually screwed any sort of 'heavy' rural user:
Install install cost is $499 + $75 travel, this is on 24 mth term.
Monthly is $105, forfirst 10GB, then either 10GB blocks at $17.50, or $2.50 per GB.
Thats a cool $210 for an 80Gb plan or $272.50 on a pas as you go basis! (and we all know that once it's faster - us geeks can't help but use use MOAR! :D
