I'm a recent mythbuntu convert formerly a fedora user. They seem to
take care of more things for you while staying pretty current. Still
had to spend some time reading logs and asking for help to get XvMC
working with my video card but all in all I'd recommend it over the
alternatives. Everyone has different needs/experiences, but if you're
familiar with debian and/or ubuntu then it sounds like the perfect
fit. Also their theme is nice looking.
