She seems to be a fan so far, and we actually got the in-store item for about $550 before taxes. Oddly enough, they still sell gateway?  The Asus was the Performance to Clean Design to Price champion of that showroom floor, hands down.
As for cons, I just point to the insane amount of useless crap that comes pre-installed. FFS, she has a SQL Express install on the thing. Who knows why a Home User laptop needs SQL Server on it. Uninstalling that and not having it load on startup should be helpful. Also, the Trend Micro app on there is like another UAC - that was also disabled rapidly.
I got all the tech crap out of the way, so she can just bask in the awesome parts now. |

Posted On: May 31 2009, 09:08 AM | PS3 Media Server
Closest thing I saw mentioned, was a Ps3 Media Player, that has some support for 360, but it didn't sound like it was the best yet. Not sure on the URL and stuff, I'll see what I can find.
This might be it:

Hi there... you will find on this page an experimental upnp media server I've written in Java
(so you can also use it on Linux), with precious help from MPlayer/MEncoder, FFMpeg,
AVISynth eventually, and currently using with my Playstation3.... I was quite fed up with TVersity
and others servers I've tried as none of them easily supports subtitles and 1080p transcode,
as well as any kind of files I want to play without worrying about ps3 compatibility.
I'm currently transcoding in real-time and no quality loss, 1080p mkv files.
The drawback is the high bitrate your network must support: with the default settings,
specific scenes with a lot of details (e.g.: zoom on a newspaper article) can have
bitrates near 100mb/s, so gigabit is maybe useful.
However, you can limit the bitrate, for wireless 720p playback for example. Check The FAQ !
Win, Mac and Linux Versions? Awesome, DL'ing now.
I got my console found, and I see the Server in my Video browsing on my 360, but no go on video, Avi or Mkv. I tried the transcoding option as well (pretty sure primary objective) and it fails in Linux trying to access tsMuxeR. Structure looks fine, not sure why it's shitting out. I cleared the error by running the app from a smaller directory tree, but video still fails. |

Posted On: May 9 2009, 06:08 AM | Fuckin... 360..
So I got one of those E74 "General Hardware Failure" bugs with partial red ring. After reading the help page for this error on the official support website, it basically said if it still occurs after unplugging everything and testing completely barebones, then you're fucked and need to have it repaired.
I saw some things on the internet about overheating hacks and crap... but... I dunno I thought I remember some of you guys saying that's all silly nilly.
I only had a 30 Day warranty-- received from Ebay. I sent them an angry letter to see if they might help out in some way. I already had to have them swap my wireless controller they sent me.
Any advice or tips/experiences on this? Pic0o, didn't you just go through a red ring experience? |
