<div>I see the anti-ARM crowd has already jumped in. Here's the
reality: I use a SheevaPlug (same ARM CPU as the Seagate
mentioned earlier) for my Myth BE and it works just fine.
Reschedules take a little while, so if you schedule a new show
it doesn't show up in the Upcoming Recordings right away.
Otherwise, I'm very happy with it. I do not commflag or
transcode however.</div>

<div>Performance is not an issue. The thing is shoveling bits
from HDHR to a hard drive and from the hard drive to a FE out
on the network. If some people get a kick out of using
quad-core 3GHz CPUs to do 400MHz of work, well, it's a free
country. But don't tell me ARM is a downgrade because I
consider a big, noisy, hot, inefficient x86 box to be a
downgrade in every important way from my tiny, silent, cool,
efficient ARM.</div>
