extremely low power consumption small form factor works with XP like a champ price was right (free)

Sound quality is GARBAGE... lots of noise, hums, and static... interference from the video circuit (pitch of the hum changes with the resolution setting). Shipped with Win2k/XP only software... I want to use this with Win7, WHS2011, and Solaris....
