Subject: [slinkelist] Minimum hardware requirements for CDJ/Slink-e?

[Dale Andren]

I run mine on 133 mhz ibm thinkpad with 32 ram and 800 mb drive everything
runs fine.
I keep a browser open and can also run MS Word, outlook express email
without crashes.

I want to hook a cm11a  x10 controller to the slinke and run a program
called active home. Is anyone using this combination and is there a good
source of information on how to set this up. Activehome is the free home
automatio software that is free at the x10 site. www.x10.com.

I have an extensive list of cd covers that are saved in the format
"sting - brand new day.jpg".  I was wondering if anyone would like to
start exchanging cover art files, as this could save the users of this
feature a lot of time. I am waiting to see how big the entire folder is when
I am done.
.....only 200 of these suckers to go.

Good Luck,
Dale

  I've been thinking of doing what others here have obviously been =
doing:  have a dedicated PC or laptop for CDJ and Slink-e, rather than =
having it run on my "workstation" PC.  I don't want to use overkill, so =
can anyone tell me what the minimum spec for such a beast might be?  =
Processor, memory, Windows OS, etc?  I looked on the Nirvis site for =
this info, and searched the slink-e list messages since 27/7/99 (too bad =
the digest includes submissions as attachments -- this makes it harder =
to search for text) but couldn't find it.  And I didn't see any easy way =
to search the BBS archives.

  Any advice that people have concerning this, in particular from their =
own experience, would be appreciated.  Please cc emails to my account =
directly, so I don't miss them.

  Cheers,
