Call me Mr Revo (R3610, Dual Core, Linux version £160).... might as
well considering how often I seem to be suggesting it/mentioning it
:-)

Add an ESata/USB recordings drive, USB Tuner and something like
myth{dora|buntu} with VDPAU.

Watching SD (BBC1 recordings so reasonably high bit rate); 5% CPU on
one Core, CPU 1% avg, Load 0.00!)

Only issue is that it only has VGA and HDMI, no Svideo so you will
need a "recent" TV

What are your broader requirements?

Greg
