I remember seeing the first demos of streaming video off an XT back around '03/'04 iirc. Friend of mine at the time had collected about four of the machines. Full-size disk drives are real beasts! Needless to say the project that never happened was to write a little program to control all four from a central PC by signalling over the unused serial pin or something... never happened, but would have been lots of fun. Cool stuff and thanks for the link! :D
