ken_cinder Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 You could build a PC and run a Linux fileserver/router for much cheaper. Neat toy, but a huge waste of money if you're capable of doing what I just said (Anyone is, provided you aren't too stubborn to learn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neat toy, but a huge waste of money if you're capable of doing what I just said (Anyone is, provided you aren't too stubborn to learn) I was going to say something like that myself, that what I did before and works it like a charm and I even host my blog on there. that router can't even do PHP and MySQL (or pgsql even) so the router is no good for professionals really and html is not interactive on it own (without PHP or ASP).

skid Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 You could build a PC and run a Linux fileserver/router for much cheaper. Neat toy, but a huge waste of money if you're capable of doing what I just said (Anyone is, provided you aren't too stubborn to learn) Agreed. Other things to consider are that the BT client is not updateable with new BT tech (e.g. encrypted transfers) and why add in the cost of a 160GB HDD when I would want one bigger than that to start with? I am waiting for the 11N standard to finalise before buying a router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 When I move out from here I'm probably going to built a small, cheap, Shuttle PC to serve as a wireless server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
