-Project Computer




The idea started simple, I wanted a new computer to play with and thought miniITX boards were awesome. But it grew into something more.

Ideas and parts come and go, since the computer is intended to be multifunctional and something to play around with, I look for good deals and interesting applications and I see what I can make happen with this tiny little rig.

I plan to:
-Configure the wireless card to act as a wireless access point
-Setup a NAS off of an external hard drive
-Setup a print server
