To convert your Computer into a media server you just need to add some media server software. For Vista or XP(sp2) this can just be Windows Media Player (v11). You can also use other media servers such as Twonky or TVersity on PC. Linux and Mac options are also widely available. Most of these media server packages are available for download and some are free.

9/10 - 'It's incredibly easy to set up, picking up a wireless network straight away. Enter your WEP code and you're off. .......it's a sexy looking wireless media streamer for under £90....... Highly recommended'
The GuardianThe Guardian technology
"The wireless networking is flawless. My media server (a hard drive attached to my router) turned up at once. AAC and MP3 audio files, and DVD .vob, AVI and MPEG-2 files, plus photo albums, all played and previewed without problem. And unlike many media streamers, the Solwise has slots for CF and other storage cards, which are read directly." Charles Arthur, The Guardian
