Hello,
Can anyone suggest some cheap bittorrent hardware like Thin Clients with embedded torrent clients, routers with embedded torrent, NAS which i can buy.

Price is an important consideration.

its not that hard you can have good router like linksys and check your torrent client wich port its using and open that port in windows firewall i believe it will increase the download bandwith

man, what are your electric bills?

The $300 you'd spend on a NAS/mini-pc would run my i7 desktop for 2.28 years, and that's assuming you don't plug in the nas/mini. Add in electrical costs and you're closer to 2.5 years before the break even mark.

Even my brother's 4ghz i7 with 6gb of ram and 5870 costs only ~$0.14/day to let idle
