[mythtv-users] Building a small front end with HD - hardwaresuggestions

I remember when I searched a micro ATX with hdmi, there were only two
boards for AMD AM2 which had Geforce graphics and HDMI.

But ... if you don't care which CPU you get ... here are all micro ATX
boards on newegg which have HDMI. There are not so many. I like more
my surround boxes then TV boxes:

No idea ... probably some are and some are not. read the comments in the shop.
