8 full- and part-time frontends that are not also backends (including
laptops, carputer, etc).
5 backends (4 are also frontends)
8 encoders on 7 dedicated cards (1xHDHR, 2xHDPVR, 2xPVR250, 1xHD2000,
1xAir2PC). I also have an HDHR that an old MCE 2005 box normally uses
that could help chip in with Myth
8.5TB reserved for Myth Recordings. My keeper shows, other videos, music
and images are stored elsewhere.

We love to "turn Myth loose" on events such as Live Earth and Olympics.
