So,

Got a big box of parts today in the mail 🙂 everything but the dvdram drive. The big thing that I was worried about was the kingwin mouse and Targus wireless keyboard working together. Right now testing on the laptop with win7 64bit seems to be working. It will take a few days to see if they last and work from across the room. Right now I am 2 feet away. It might be different when it is across the room. They look good enough for my living room. It’s not Apple product, but you know. It will do.

I’m including the links as they seem good to me.

Once we get the dvd drive, I will install windows with xbmc on top. From what I’ve read it is the best for HTPC.

Well, it is time for bed.

Good Night,

Drew
