[QUOTE="smithft, post: 28140, member: 16417"] Hi, I'm new to teh forum but have looked through the posts and cannot seem to find a related topic. I hope I'm posting this in teh correct section.... Anyway the app is fantastic and I am looking for advice. I want to use Media Portal just to control my music, read RSS news feeds, get weather reports, etc.. but not any TV/DVD/Video related stuff. I bought a 8" Touch LCD screen on ebay as this will be my interface in the kitchen. I plan on connecting this to a small PC (hidden) in the kitchen and use my wireless network to connect to the media and the Internet. I want to keep the cost down and was wondering if anybody could suggest a spec of PC that would suit my purpose. I've read the min spec but it seems like overkill for what I want to use. The graphics card is the other part I am struggling with. I know I have to use a DX9 compatable card but again just using this for my purpose would seem over the top. Any advice would be great Thanks [/QUOTE]
