Oh darn it. Pipermail made that message a blank screen (<a href="http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2008-November/239717.html">http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2008-November/239717.html</a>) and now I see on gossamer that it was a real message, so I feel obliged to give a real answer instead of my joke answer. ;)<br>
<br>Anyway, that machine will probably be okay for Terrestrial HD (so long as it's not h.264) but it would be wiser and more forward-thinking to get a mid-end Core 2 Duo and a $30 USD nvidia 9xxx series card. This will allow you to tackle your current HD, and when VDPAU matures, will allow you to offload graphics decode and display to your graphics card and be future proof for Blu-ray, high bitrate terrestrial H.264, etc.. A $200 expenditure now will save you re-buying a whole new frontend in 6-12 months.<br>
