HELLLPPP


Getting started and need help with my setup. I have a Mac powerbook currently and here is my plan.
1. Buy reasonable hard drive, say 250 GB, and connect to network. Here is my first question for mac users, I use airport express for wireless with this one laptop. Can I use this for the hard drive network or what else do I need?
2. Have all my music loaded into iTunes with Apple Loseless to the hard drive.
3. Buy either Squeezbox 3 or similar and connect to my meridian pre/pro.
4. Use my mac as a remote to choose music for wireless SB.

How does this sound??

Thanks

1. No, though you could save $$$ and just buy a 802.11G router and then use the digital out on the AE (after reseting it to be a client of your network)to connect to your pre/pro and you wouldn't need the sqeezebox, or any other hardware for that matter.

Typically D-Link or Lyncsys 802.11G routers are on sale for <$40 and usually less than $30 in the paper. This would give you digital in to your pre/pro, and allow you to use the MAC as a remote.

FWIW I would buy more than 250 GB, drive space is cheap, and more is better than less.
