    info DBox 2 Any use

    Hi,

    I have an old dbox 2 which was the best thing since slice bread for me during the old cable days but now is there any use for these boxes anymore? Surely the bright sparks whose great ideas turned them into successful cable boxes must have come up with other uses for them apart from door props.

    the dbox2 can be used as a very good media sharer if you configure it properly.
    if you link it properly to the files/folders on each pc it works very fast
