I'd like to know if running other programs on the Zuma during playback will affect its performance as a music server (esp. sound quality). I'm thinking of server type programs like virtual machines, an SSH daemon, etc. I don't run any processing algorithms or effects on my music. If so, would a viable solution be running all the server type stuff in a virtual machine, then shutting down that virtual machine when listening to music. Kind of hard to justify plonking down that much money on so much processing power only to use it an hour a day...

Hi, It is recommended in an article in the CA academy that "computers should not be on the same electrical circuit as the audio system" (http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/Get-Better-Sound-Without-Spending-Fortune). How can this be achieved? Isn't everything in a single household that's plugged in part of one giant parallel circuit? Or is it sufficient to have the audio equipment and computer equipment running out of different power sockets?
