[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1266946, member: 38864"] The Boxee Box would likely work, as well as Google TV devices like the Logitech Revue. All these seem like overkill though for what you are looking to do. Have you thoroughly considered how you are going to hook these up and the general ramifications of managing all this (connectors needed, electrical supply for all these, managing all the cables if you want a tidy appearance)? Are you using LCD computer displays, or flat panel TV sets? Many TV sets today have USB ports in them and can do slide shows on their own, completely negating the need for a 3rd-party box. And of course your budget is a factor, and what devices you currently have on-hand to use for this project. [/QUOTE]
