To complete the Kitchen PC....



I installed a Kitchen PC a few months back, initially just a wee
MIniITX
C800, and it has proven to be brilliant!

it saves us putting the main PCs on so much, and is quick and easy for just
about everything, including recipes in the kitchen etc.

So, we upgraded the main PCs to some kick ass new Core 2 Duos ;) and
recycled the spare parts - kitchen PC now has a great GFX card, with TV, so
it can be used as an LCD TV as well as the PC.

what would make it absolutley perfect is a couple of cool apps - I know ATI
used to do a video desktop, that made your background wallpaper a video
image, but can't find anything like it now.

the other thing, which I would have thought was really common is a video
screensaver.

The video capture is a nvidia one, but it has both WDM and VFW drivers, so
should be pretty generic.

any ideas?

OS is Windows XP btw

Ian.
