I am wanting to use the 5.25" bay in a case for an LCD output of basic system stats like CPU/GPU temp, fan speed. Does XBMC support such a thing, and if so does anyone have any recommendations for brands.
Mind you I run LIVE...
Thanks.

sorry, i dont want to break the party but,
i now know that my next HTPC wont have an LCD screen,,,
it came with my case, so ok, but i wouldnt pay again for that,,
why?
well, its been a pain to setup,
u need a separate app to make XBMC stuff appear on the screen,
its un-useful, i never look at it, and yeah, no more LCD screens for me,,,

Why are you always bringin me down man?!?
I was just thinking that the next case I go with, when I throw all this in a server rack happens to have a singular external 5.25 bay that I have no interest in using... So if it could display system info it would atleast be eyecandy. But frankly, I don't know if I wanna go through the hassle. A big part of me was hoping someone would say "Nope, XBMC won't support it. Never has, never will." But, now I'm gonna look at that open bay and its gonna bug me.
