Wow - thanks for all the help. I think I'll try XP in a Virtual Box, if I decide there's anything that only Windows apps can do. With regard to dropbox, I've looked at a few of the online backup services but they don't seem to provide the storage I require, or at least not with a reasonable price. I'd like 250GB as a minimum. Not bothered about bells and whistles, so any box that I can ftp to would do.<br>
<br>Will also checkout Samba for the XBox stuff.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Barry<br>
