Re: [ukha_d] Dell £99 server offer on again until tomorrow

["Mark Golledge" <markgolledge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Seen this thread and thought I'd through in a couple of questions.

I've recently put up a thread about developing a PVR. Would it be possible
to install Linux on this machine and run MythTV off it? If so, I need it to
be very quiet as it'd be in the lounge, plugged into the Xbox which would
act as the front end.

Also, I could take out the 80GB hard drive and swap it with the Xbox 120GB
hard drive so as to give some extra space.

Being absolutely silent is critical though.
