Yes, but this would mean leaving a fairly noise y PC on more of the time.
Yes- One of the routers I was looking at has one built in, but as we have a laserjet and injet printer, this means two printservers. I can always bolt these on later. Netgear certainly do them to integrate with their routers
Yes - again leaving it on full time / noise / heat.
Yes - I've got one, but backing up my 33Gb of iTunes AACs is a tedious task, and thats just part of the 160Gb of HDD on the main PC.
