Or for the $999 you should be able to get:
CoolerMaster ATC-610-GX1 HTPC Case
CDRW/DVD Combo Drive
Seagate 120 GB 7200rpm
512 MB PC2700
MATX Athon XP Motherboard (Asus A7N266-VM?)
Power Supply (Make sure its quiet)
AMD Athlon XP 2200+ or better
WinTV PVR250
Zalman Processor Heatsink and Fan (Keep it quiet!)
Nvidia 440 MX SE based AGP card with TV-out (No Fan on GPU)
Card reader for 3.5" bay
Need a 1394/Firewire card if you are really going to use the FW . . .
This is easy to do under a grand.
