Hi everyone, I'm looking to replace my desktop-based xbmc movie playing box with a much smaller and more energy-efficient ARM-based DIY project. II'd love to hear what other people recommend for specs. I'd like to build a system with: - relatively simple and manageable OS (Raspbian has been nice on my old RP rev b) - some kind of hobbyist board, raspbi or beaglebone or whatever seems best; - cheapest possible large ssd drive - a power button (!) - a wireless keyboard or other control device - HDMI out - some kind of a box to hold everything together (likely self-designed out of some very cheap scrap materials) - power source that can drive all these pieces - as little cost as possible So, what do you all think? I really look forward to your suggestions. m
