I want to use this one as a music server at work by installing voyage 
mpd on it:

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Shuttle/DS437T/6.html

This is the Shuttle DS437, it's a bit overpowered for this, at least 
when you compare
to an Alix. But I wanted to try a box with enough power so I can roll it 
over for
basic HTPC use later if I want.

I want to make a standalone box with Voyage MPD on it that runs in local 
mode (that is
no web server interface controlling it over ethernet to a client)
drives a LCD/HDMI display touch panel.  The music will be on a USB key 
plugged into
the Shuttle. There would be no keyboard, just a mouse and the LCD 
touchpad. The
Shuttle would then feed a USB DAC -> headphones.
The reason for this is that the place I work at is pretty strict on not 
plugging things
like USB keys into the official work PCs or the network.  I plan to have 
the Shuttle PC never plugged
into the network, that is as a standalone system, so the IT people will 
be happy.


What has me concerned is the statement in the Specs say it's a UEFI 
bios, can Voyage MPD be
installed on a UEFI BIOS system?
