Just so whoever actually does package Mythbuntu and created the Mythbuntu
Control Center feels the love (we're not all haters), I seriously appreciate
the work you do.  It's insanely simple now to install a complete system for
MythTV in whatever configuration as well as add MythTV to an existing Ubuntu
install.  While I'm glad that I went through installing everything manually
several times before Mythbuntu ever was (so I can understand the whole
process), it just makes me like the pre-packaged CD so much more...

And, thank you to the MythTV devs as well, TV is not TV w/o Myth...

THANK YOU
