Hello,
This is my first linux build.. would love to have some advice. I'm buying everything (in the box) new.
Objectives:
- do web/banking on local 17" monitor
- output video via HDMI to HDTV (need dual monitor support with different resolutions)
- sources of video are streamed from hulu, files on NAS, BD drive (prefer gigabit ethernet)
- very fast boot time (SSD, will probably use ubuntu since I am new to linux)
- small footprint (mini-itx, appliance-like case)
- quiet is best
Approximate Purchase Date: within a month
Budget Range: <$500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: covered above
Parts Not Required: speakers, keyboard, mouse, monitor
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: any
Country: USA
Parts Preferences: mini-itx, gigabit ethernet
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution:1920x1080, 1366x768
Additional Comments:
Appreciate any help you can provide!
