Hi everybody,


I'm thinking about buying a PPC single board computer
to play with it, just for fun.

I have been looking at motorola website but really I
get lost and can not imagine which board is the better
for me so could you give me some advice?

I want to run Linux on it and although I'm ready to
hack around a bit I don't own a lab so I need a board
easy to setup without special hardware.

Some things I will like to do are:
  - connecting a CD-ROM or a DVD
  - playing with sound so some A/D and D/A converters
will be good
  - networking via ethernet 10Mb (or at least a serial
port)
  - controlling it with an infrared device
  - and maybe some video output

Oh, and I have a limited budget so it should be
cheap...

Can somebody help me?


Thank you

- Salvador Fandiño
