And if you're going to buy one of those, just save yourself a whole lot of trouble and buy a real DVD player. On a PIII-700 (with Xv, mind) I haven't gotten flawless performance out of ogle, vlc or xine, and the players are (afaik) limited to ac3 sound so you don't get DTS. (I also don't get 5.1 sound out of my machine, but maybe there's some hardware somewhere which does it.) So I don't think it's worth it. If you want a machine to display movies you downloaded, act as a jukebox, etc, go for it, but get a standalone DVD player. -- Alan Shutko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - In a variety of flavors!
