I've been using linux since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. I use it at work to monitor our network, and participate in a whole bunch of open source projects like MRTG, RRDTool, Cacti and a whole mess of other stuff.

And oh yeah, MythTV. I run MythTV backend on a decent Celery 2.4 Ghz box with ab out 1 tb of space just for videos. I also have about 450gb of music and album art. I also use it for displaying pictures. I have a MediaMVP for two frontends, and a netboot IBM Netvista frontend. I just picked up a Silver Stone LC01 case for super cheap, then grabbed an Asus P4P800 SE with a Celery 2.4 and a PVR250. I'm netbooting this as well. It is hooked up to my cable box, and records via the regular coax and uses an IR blaster. Once I get my crap together, I'm going down to the local cable office and grab an HD box (I have no HD TV yet!) and start recording over firewire.
