Hi, I hope you'll be able to help me on this question.
I'm building a mini-ITX system that i'll be able to watch DVD's and play Music on. Now I don't want to shell out the extortional amounts that they charge you for a copy of XP as I would only use half the features. I think i'm going to get one of the new MII 6000E Eden boards, would this be a problem (from drivers etc)
Does anyone know of a Linux distribution that I could do that on?
Also, if possible, i'd like it to be able to play music over a network. All the machines on my Network are on XP and I play music through a shared documents file. Is Linux able to communicate with Windows shared docs or is that a no go?
Cheers for your help
