Hello all,

I've been using Showshifter for 6 months now but would like to try MythTV.

I was going to build a new showshifter machine and now I want to make 
sure that I'm taking MythTV into account when deciding system specs

I want to use dual TV cards and from what I've read the Hauppauge 401 is 
the one.

So what would you recommend?

Below is what I have planned can you see any problems?

2400+ AMD XP Processor?
ASUS A7N8X MB?
1GB Samsung 2700 DDRRam?
ATI 9000 Radeon 64mb w/TV out Video Card?
2 Hauppauge 401 cards
120GB Maxtor 5400 (for noise reasons)
Onboard LAN
Onboard sound
Distro Redhat 8.0 or Gentoo
I want to be able to use MythTV to its fullest

Thanks

Brad
