Erm, you didn't say it had to be a sensible use of the equipment, did you?
:-) Personally I think you can never have enough bandwidth, especially with
audio. Being fairly shortsighted the video quality is of little consequence

 If I've won, please donate the equipment to the TLBPC Foundation (Three
Linux Boxes Per Child)

Regards,

Neil.
