I use one of these on my system running 4 URI's without any problems. http://www.mini-box.com/VoomPC-2-Car-PC-Barebone-Intel?sc=8&category=101 On 12/17/2011 4:14 PM, Shaun Rudling wrote:
OK, I admit. Have not spent too much time with Mr Google on this one, but here goes hoping for a short-cut answer................
I would like to run each of my seven repeater sites (mains/grid powered with 12v standby bat) each with it's own URI and AllStar node. Some sites will have two URI's.
*Question; What PC should I use at each site (12v PC would be nice, and with "auto power on" from dead battery when mains power returns)*
I had a look here http://www.mini-itx.com/ but the amount of choice is overwhelming. No idea which one is suitable. Then there is this thing called a Beagle Board??
The processor must be fast enough to handle 2x URI's. I tried using a HP netbook and an Asus eeePC but voice overs were a bit choppy as if the processor was battling. I do not really want fans, hard drives or any other antiquated moving devices (when are we going to see quiet, passive pc's at the workplace?) I do not need wireless, just an Ethernet port.
