So I had a momentary distraction (that lasted about an hour). I wondered if, for our upcoming Thanksgiving, I could coax the RiscPC into providing us with music. The only slight problem was that the RiscPC is 18 years old, and won’t talk to the network properly. It has internet access, of sorts. Despite sporting a processor upgrade (233Mhz StrongARM!) and a mighty 32Mb of RAM, the poor beastie has a bit of an issue with the trifling problem when it comes to accessing the network shared files.
In a final moment of distraction I’ve managed to find ‘SunFish’ which I’ll give a quick go too, but I’m not wholly optimistic. Also, it turns out it’s way noiser than I remember, although not vastly noiser than my Mac is these days…
