Intel i854 GREG2 motherboard - a bunch of integrated stuff that works
fine for a decent price.  I prefer ATX.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Shopping for hardware.


I am thinking about building a mythtv and am trying to figure out what 
kind of hardware would present me with the least amount of headaches. 
One question I am mulling is whether to go with mini-itx system or a 
regular P4.  It seems like a lot of people have built them with C3s but 
do the Eden chips have enough horsepower (combined with a pvr--250 0r 
350) to drive myth TV?

Also is anybody handicapped by only having only one PCI slot? I think 
I'd want a wireless ethernet too at least and maybe even a SCSI card.

Finally does anybody know if this PC 
http://www.directron.com/6255va.html runs linux?

So many questions I know, I appreciate any guidance before I part with 
the bucks.
