[mythtv-users] query about others using via mini-itx systems

I am considering the purchase of a mini-itx via system to use as a
remote frontend. Basically will work on getting the unit to PXE boot
from my backend via ethernet and then run everything this way.

It's purely going to be a frontend for livetv and recorded shows etc.
Not sure if the pxe boot will be the way to go, but I'd certainly like
to try. If this fails I will get the system booting off compact flash
I suspect.

Anyone currently on list who has attempted this or got it running.
Looking to confirm what model via board would be best suited to the
task.

Thanks
