Don't forget about Ubuntu as I have found it to be the "easiest" distro
for normal use and I think that's mainly because the support for the
distro is pretty darn good. Then, if you want ease and flexibility go
with either MythDora (this distro is too controlled for me, I need more
options because I enjoy screwing things up so I have to fix them) and
then, there is the always popular (and my personal favorite) .:Fedora
Myth(TV)ology:. By Jarod @ http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php.
