Whereas most newbies struggle to get ftp working, I have a problem with the following... How about setting up a xbox with either media player/center as your dashboard, and then let it be your file/media server in the house? It isn't noisy, doesn't require a pc to be switched on to access any media - for me it will be brilliant, especially with two wireless laptops. I can download the files using FTP, but that defeats the purpose. I tried searching everywhere, but can't think I am the first one to come up with this idea. And no, I don't want it running Linux, as then I've got the whole media codecs issue to deal with. Please enlighten me
