Internet Radio
Currently living in Florida. There are four things I miss (in particular) about not being in UK - mountains, fish & chips, BBC radio and television and, Carol Vorderman.
Mountains are hard to find here (other than financial ones), fish & chips are available (but crap), Carol Vorderman...well, available when i'm asleep - but what about the BBC??
I am considering building a small computer, attach it to my home network, run it through the television set for internet surfing (DSL connection) and through the hi-fi for listening to BBC Radio 2 and 4.
Not really interested in great speed, don't need huge hard drives to store data (though I have a spare 40gig drive anyway), certainly don't need CDRoms and/or DVD drives....WHAT DO I NEED??
Anybody suggest a reasonable, low priced, spec? The "tower" is likely to be hidden behind a wall unit - so no access to front panel once it is in place. Will probably do a wireless mouse and keyboard to run it whilst sat on the sofa.
Any thoughts??
