Turnkey MythTV
16 Aug 2006
Recently spotted on engadget a MythTV media center for $650. Not a bad deal, I spent $600 building my own using a Shuttle case, add $150 for a dvd burner and $125 for a video card. That was 3 years ago and the software wasn’t as polished as it is now. I have now added a RF remote, mediaMVP, and upgraded the hard drive to 300 GB. If you don’t mind tinkering or hacking those old computers into something useful, then I recommend rolling your own with KnoppMyth. Otherwise the Monolith Media Center is a great deal.
