Ars Reviews AirPort Express

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the it-fits-in-the-palm-of-your-hand dept.

ack154 writes "Ars Technica has a nice, comprehensive review of the new AirPort Express from Apple. There is a breakdown of each of the main features: music streaming, a mobile base station, a base station extender, and networking a printer. All features were tested from both Mac and Windows perspectives. Overall it got an 8/10 with points mainly lost for no means of remote control and no audio cable included in the package."

    Since when do Airports come with audio cables? That's like dodging points for a graphics card w/o a speaker.

    I don't know about you, but I'd seriously consider buying one of these if only it suppoerted music streaming from Linux!

    But if we block their military frequencies, how can they coordinate their total surrender?
