Hi all,
The birth of my daughter nearly four years ago continues to have
huge repercussions for computer related activities at Casa Mega-nerd.
The next changes major change in this regard is the removal of all
computers from my computer room (now more commonly called "Helena's
bedroom").
I've also recently become interested in setting upi MythTV. That
means that I'd like to combine my main home machine (on 24/7, mail
server, bzr repository, wifi gateway etc) with MythTV into one
machine. I've been reading some of the MythTV Wiki :
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/HardWare
which suggests that what I want is a machine that does the combined
MythTV front and back ends in one machine which also acts as a
server/gateway which is going to sit in the living room (apartment
living).
I realise that to just run the MythTV backend I need a reasonably
grunty machine. I also ocassionally need to do some computationally
intensive stuff that can run for days. So, I'm looking at the issue
of cooling as well:

Given the above info, does anyone have any recommendations on
hardware?
Cheers,
Erik
