Dear benke, You appear to be confused about what DLNA means for hardware. If you buy a portable music player, it can be certified as a "Digital Media Player". If you buy a printer, it could be certified as a "Digital Media Printer". If you buy a remote-control it could be certified as a "Digital Med...

Your evaluation of the implications is incorrect. "auto-resume" is a feature in bios that, upon power being restored after a loss, will set the machine to it's previous on or off state, with no reguard to data-safety, or 'imagaing'. I believe we aren't going to get this feature. "Instant-on" is wher...

Umm, not to alarm you or anything, but is it possible that your disk is fried? (or, i suppose, the usb key you're loading the image onto?)

Sorry, by AC i didn't mean "Alternating Current" but "Air Conditioning" ... i was refering to a heating problem. The other environmental problem that could affect both is remote user load.

They both failed at the same time? and the disk itself reports errors... recoverable, but actual errors? I'd look for an environmental problem if two seperate disks in seperate machines failed, temporarily, at the same point in time.

Your AC go out? Have an earthquake? etc...

OK, so I checked with fit-pc.co.uk and they offer the linux performance option with no wifi, which exactly what i want, but fail to ship to USA.

Any distributors within USA offering instant-on?

oh well. little steps. It's a software issue, and I'm sure they'll get it eventually, and I can use the ubuntu install until FreeBSD works.

I would like to order your product. How do I specify the instant-on feature?

This brings up an interesting question. I've worked on a few dozen computers myself and the bios chip is always easily visible because: a) it's in a socket so it can be extracted, b) it's bigger (or 'older') than any other chip on the board, c) it's got a shiny reflective plate on it saying what sor...
