Here in italy in few days we have an important IT show, Smau 2003, and we'll launch our "Dreamux". A simple MythBox with a new theme, lots of configuration and some external programs. The building of this box was a nightmare. The big issue was with hardware market instability. It is impossible to buy a piece of hardware today, test it, and then return to the shop and find more piece of the same motherboard/videocard/caputercard you bought simple the week before.
About the "stability" of the software, yeah... it is achieved and with the remote you can do everything.
The final price will be not less than 1.500,00 Euro and for the first bunch of piece our profit margin will be very small because we are buying component at retail price. If we find enough interest, we'll start to buy wholesale and we hope to get some Euro from Isaac work :)

  Is there a market for prebuilt mythtv boxes? Hi-fi component-style systems with a remote control and mythtv preinstalled etc. etc.

   

  Surely there is - why isn't anyone doing it?
