Re: VIA Network MP3 Project

["Chris Bond" <chris@xxxxxxx>]

Yup thats what im trying to find, or i might get a friend to build a custom=
psu.  Trying to stay away from that though if possible.

So far it will need ram (about 7quid for 64mb), psu and custom case.  = Most
likely an lcd and possible IR port (Mark McCalls idea).  If we set a b= udget
of about =A3150 i recoken it can be done!

Kind Regards,
Chris Bond
