Hey Wil,

Check this out:

These media centers are badass - and they run MythTV! First heard about them on the Linux Action Show (which is a great podcast BTW)...

TVease media centers (http://store02.prostores.com/servlet/tvease/Search?category=media+centers%3A7)

Thought you'd like it, being a Linux fan.

Hey Will if you have an old XBOX laying around Xbox Media Center is a GREAT way to get all your media to your tv with all open source goodness (all Linux baby!). Check them out here (http://xboxmediacenter.com/index.php). It only cost me $35 to modd the xbox and if you throw in a Network attached storage for your home network the xbox can pull all of your media off of it. It's what I use to get all my podcasts, music, and other downloaded content to my living room. Here (http://www.productwiki.com/microsoft_xbox/article/how_to_go_from_xbox_to_xbox_media_center_in_30_min utes.html) is a great wiki on how to do it or just download episode 106 of DL.TV (thats where I learned how).
