not sure exactly what you mean, but i run the squeezebox server on a barebones machine that has a via-c7 chip (think early netbook) with a usb data disk, and it is very slow. the music streams just fine, but the web based server is noticeably sluggish. i guess it might be the usb disk, but i think the computer itself is underpowered (the server software is perl-based). [edit: ah, no, i think you just want a client; you've got the sever on the eee? in which case ignore this. you know you can buy the little controller handset things?]
