I'm looking to put together a MythTV box, with both the front end and
back end built into the same machine (I want them in the same machine
for now for economic reasons).  I'm also looking for it to be relatively
quiet, so I'm leaning towards fanless enclosures.  This is what I'm
looking at right now:

I'd go with the most powerful processor they provide, with 1GB RAM, a
500GB SATA HD, and a two-tuner card like the PVR-500 (I'm guessing at
this last one).  I'd also want to get a fully functional remote if
possible;  I didn't see in the install guide any mention of compatible
remotes.

I know there have been issues in the past with VIA
processors/chipsets/motherboards.  Is this still the case?  Should I
look for a different solution?
