I know I'm a few days late and haven't read all the threads yet,
but I started with a P3-600, purchased a upgrade kit to
bring it to a P3-1400.  With XvMC, it can do most HD playback;
SD is no problem at all.
BTW, I started Mythtv life with a P2-450, and just too slow,
maybe with XvMC it would work, but at the time that wasn't
an option...
