The Atom seems to work fine for DVD playback, if that helps you judge on the video side of things, I use an external USB DVD on the machine. I've no interest in BluRay yet so I can't tell you how it handles that. From that review, it looks like the chipset it holding the Atom back, 4W for the processor but 22W for the chipset seems backwards. However that chipset is well supported under Linux, especially the hassle free, open driver 3D support. -- Gav Ford [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://revford.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk I think we need to: Repair the kettle flow
