I'm familiar with geekbox, was hoping for like links to cheap systems or a parts list or something rather than software but I do love me some free linuxy stuff :cheers:
lilshawn:
small formfactor HP computer from government auction... P4HT 3ghz 1gb ram - $110 for a pallet of 8 or so units... so ~$13 :dunno
geexbox - free
harddrive (used old drive) - free
VGA cable - free
total cost - $13
don't need anything too crazy...you are just playing video.

I like how USB DVD drives are so much more quieter than stock 5.25, and they are getting cheaper too.
