I remember a time when you could just walk up to a TV and turn it on.
And it would play. Maybe it would play with a 9" snowy black and white picture in a four-foot high floor-standing cabinet, but you did not have to spend hours trying to decide whether it should be digital or analog, SD or HD, encrypted or decrypted and what type of remote it needed ("Hey
Jon, you are closer, change the channel for me.")

I think even the TV my parents had (still have?) that was older than me was in color and had a remote... :)

More and more I wonder if we will ever get to "stage three" of the
MythTV install fest, where we open it up to the general public.

Nah, I think its still doable. Most of those details are obscured from the user, so long as they get the right hardware and instruction on how to hook it up to what.
