[mythtv-users] Smallest, cheapest case?

[blacklion at blacklion.org]

As mentioned in my earlier post, I use a Chaintech 7NIF2 board in that
small Powmax case.  The 7NIF2 has a built-in GeForce4 440 MX graphics
chipset with built-in S-Video out.  I've seen on this list that several
people have this board working with MythTV.

BTW, that Powmax case will also support full-height PCI cards.  I forgot
to mention that in my last post.
