Fanless via boards balk?
I am running a frontend with minimyth on a VIA SP13000, I have no issue with
live TV.  The system is silent as there is no hard drive, (it boots over the
network)

Does anyone out there have an XBox for a front end? I'm looking for 
something quieter than the ML8000 I have in my bedroom now (okay, so the 
wife is) and read that MythTV ran on XBoxes and that they were 
relatively quiet. Seems all the fanless Via boards really balk at 
watching TV. I haven't owned a game system since Playstation came out so 
I'm looking for someone to offer some tips. I've also read that MythTV 
doesn't run that nicely on the XBox, so I'd like to find out now if that 
is so before I brave Ebay to buy one.
Can anyone out there offer some experiences up with the XBox?
Thanks in advance.
