If we are talking about just plain vdr client with DVB cards somewhere in network (NFS).. How about "Samsung SyncMaster 460MXn 46" Full HD LCD with in builded PC" (LH46MGTLBC/EN) * AMD Athlon X2 3400+ 1.8GHz * 1GB DDR2 * 4MB Flash * ATI Radeon HD 3200 * GBit LAN * Realtek ALC262 sound * 3x USB2.0 * Windows what could be changed to Linux... ;-) Price here at Finland .. ~2100€ -- JJussi _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
