I quite fancy one of these to declutter my desk.

But these seem better value. Should be able to run MythTV on it

I run a Linux media PC (using as main comp at the min). Installed with Mythdora 4.0 which was pretty easy and most things work out the box. Had to mess a bit to get the remote to work fully.

I looked at the ITX route but decided that if I wanted it to be high def capable they just were'nt powerful enough. So i went for amd 2200 dual core (low power). I am just running the stock cooler (speed control by the mobo and case fans (on lowest speed setting) and its pretty quite, I can hear the fridge going in the kitchen over the PC!

If you don't need the tv recording capability, I'd grab an old xbox, stick a modchip in, and run xbmc. It's everything MythTV should be

If you want to take the easy route, there is this option.

Seems good value if it does what it says

Yeah me Took the clowns 7 months and several arguments to connect me due to a collection of administrative fek-ups and infuriating "computer glitches" that kept refusing to authorise my orders, but now that it's working it's very good, quite quick and it's only been off once since I was cennected. Broadband service = 9/10, value for money = 10/10, Customer service = arse!

PS, in case you missed it......
