Well, all the bits & pieces have now arrived for the Myth box. (With the exception on an S-Video - Scart cable, which I ordered off ebay yesterday - it was £3 there instead of £15+ from a shop, and I don't want to spend so much when I'm not sure our TV does S-video...)
The Overture II case is most impressive - everything I've come to expect from Antec. It *is* a bit larger than I was expecting, but at least that'll keep the components spaced-out & cool.
The Hauppauge card answered my one question quite neatly: "How does an IR remote work with a PCI card that's behind the computer?" - the IR receiver is on a cable that plugs in to the PCI card & can be stuck wherever desired. Since there's a table right by the TV that frequently blocks our DVD's remote signals, being able to elevate the IR receiver is a potentially helpful thing.
And I've burned a KnoppMyth CD that will hopefully make the whole process quite easy - altho it's complicated by needing a newer kernel version than the CD comes with, of course. . .
So we shall have a go at putting it together & getting it working, hopefully tonight.

As is polite and in custom with receiving visitors. Especially angels. Shortly after they arrive, the local men turn [...]

And I'm not really sure where this question came from except that this photo has the words "Mother Nature" in it and that made me start singing "Mother Nature's Son" and then I just couldn't stop singing it so I thought maybe if I asked you what your favourite Beatles' song is I'd stop singing that song and start singing a new one and that could be fun.So, let me ask you. Because I love the

This was possibly the most ridiculous show I have seen in a long time and I can get Sky 1 I know ridiculous. It could be summed up in three sentences Do you know what's in your cereal? Want to? Read the label. Instead it went on for a hour about how evil the cereal [...]
