D-Link MediaLounge DSM-320

REVIEW DATE:01.11.05

D-Link MediaLounge DSM-320

REVIEW

By Bill Howard

For about half the price of a Windows Media Extender device that only plays on a Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 PC, you can handle music, photos, and video with the affordable D-Link MediaLounge DSM-320 ($199 direct). Early versions had a number of minor but frustrating glitches. The current models are better, but not perfect, and installation has improved.
