<br /> they seem to be good for the price...The only problem is a power supply. But if you were robot mounting a kinect, you would probably have enough experience to power this as well...
I have been keeping an eye on that kind of solution over the past few years, but still remain relativity expressive. If a windows machine is a requirement, upgrading the driver-station (or a second one) might be a better investment. Although it'll make using the Kinect easier to use the windows machine, I did find this with quick goofu, http://www.pansenti.com/wordpress/?page_id=1772
I've placed my order for a rPi, but is back-ordered. Some of the other arm based boards are also contenders, especially for robotics, despite the increased priced over the rPi.
