I see a bunch of others already warned you of the downfalls, and
therefore you've canceled your order. One more thing I wanted to
point out for anyone else that may be interested. Anything sold as a
"server" is likely going to be LOUD. Fans roaring and making a ton of
noise. That's been the case on every server I've seen. Loud fans
aren't ideal for the MythTV croud. Just a thought.
Good luck with your shopping.
