[mythtv-users] Nbie question--should I take the plunge?

I second that.
Although I can personally only speak for a HAF and he is extremly
critical. But man have I gotten praise and kisses for setting up this
MythTV box!

My recommendation for a smooth transition: keep the TV and the VCR
functional as a fallback system. I split the antenna signal with a
little amplifier so that the TV still works as a regular TV and MythTV
uses the S-video input anyway. When I breake something I can still fix
the system while regular television restores the peace in the living
room ;-))
