Hi All,

So given that these products are essentially a WinXP machince with local attached storage and that support for WinXP ends in 10 hours... How safe is my BeoSound/master!?

It runs Windows XP Embedded, which is a different product and will be supported longer.

Most of the desktop OS threats don't apply to the Beomaster 5 anyway - you don't use it to surf questionable websites or open virus mails, do you? As long as you don't open it to the entire world through your router, you're safe.
