Thanks all for the advice. It really helps. I managed to talk to a guy who
builds computers for a living. He suggested one of the P5K ASUS boards. He
didn't give a specific model number but I think he was describing the
P5K-VM. It has built in graphics, which I probably would not use. It also
has built in SPDIF.
Anyone know if MythTV can utilize the build in SPDIF putput?
In terms of processors, he recommended the E8400 and a pair of DDR2-800
memory. This may be overkill but may still be good advice in the long run.
I am thinking I can get everything running on that and experiment on what
CPU speed is actually needed and get replace it with a cheaper machine,
using the fast one as an upgrade for my desktop.
Allen
