Has anyone seen or figured out the lowest cost way to get a bare mythtv
node up?  I was thinking of setting up myth around the house and what
I'm looking for is something like

1.5GHZ + cpu
Integrated sound
Integrated video with tv out on motherboard
Integrated network

All of the previous need to work with myth obviously, including doing
NFS booting via the network.

In a perfect world it would be a tiny case as well, but somehow I
suspect to get all these things the price might get more expensive.  

A shuttle or Asus Pundit might be possibilities, but both were more
expensive than what I had in mind.  If anyone sees some refurbished
motherboards that are decent that might be idea.  The sticking points
seem to be getting the tv-out to work as well as the nfs booting off the
network.
