<big>Hi Timothy,<br>
<br>
I'm new to Myth too. Just set one up completely, and with invaluable
help from the kind folks on this list.<br>
<br>
I'm also contemplating expanding my MythTV setup across the house, and
here are my preliminary (untested) thoughts that I'd share with the
folks here for commentary:<br>
<br>
* old PIII-based system, 512MB RAM, large USB Lacie HDD<br>
* a Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 w/ TV-Out (to a regular TV via S-video)<br>
or<br>
* a Hauppauge WinTV PVR-250 (no TV-Out) to a 21" monitor + a decent
graphics card<br>
<br>
