I've been away for awhile getting real work done. In the meantime, not much has changed in the options available to Ubuntu users for architecture. I have upgraded my systems to 8.04 and built a Mini-ITX based system as a media server. After a little tweaking for the obscure SiS video, it is rock solid, quiet and uses less power than a light bulb. It is based on the Intel D201GLY2 motherboard. While this little system is rock solid, I'm tempted to replace the motherboard with the newer Atom based Intel D954GCLF2 which has a dual core processor (still < $100 with processor). The goal for this system has been to keep the system at < $200. What does this have to do with architecture? What good is an office without tunes?

I've upgraded the system with the D945gclf2 and it is now running Apple OSX Jaguar 10.5.6. Yes, it runs OSX. I also added a terabyte of storage. After all, what good is a media server without lots of storage.
