    hmm fev-station perhaps... meanwhile.. not anti-xbox or anything but i want an XP possible machine as a "just in case".

    That and i had a spare desktop box going, may as well use it.

    Heh, no problem, I like the XBOX as a enternment/gaming centre (chips are £25 for a good one). And they're dead easy to make silent.

    Wait for glider to come round, he'll tell you about Linux on it ;)

    Other then fev-station, fevtainment, fevtastic or keeping it nice and simple.

    IMHO .. for multimedia nothing can beat a cheap XBOX + free soft mod, I had built a least 6 HTPC in the last 2 years, didn't want to use an XBOX; my wife got me one for xmas; never go back to a pc again. But building a good HTPC is a good challenge, have fun and keep on going.

    ok all good names, now to reveal what i'm doing with the name...

    on the front is going to be a piece of plexi, sprayed black behind for that "iPC" look.
    Using a silver or white pen i'm thinking of writing the name of it on the front, (behind the plexi) then lighting behind it with blooo
