Hi,

yes I'm talking about a Home Theater PC:-)

Well, I'm thinking about something like Linux MCE or Elisa!

I don't have a exact idea about how I want it because I don't know what
to expect but I'm hoping that I will find something that a can squeeze
down on a flash card or a usb drive (with TinyBSD or something) and
have the media on the network!

Have a nice day:-)
