Re: [mythtv-users] ASUS Pundit choice
What about the Pundit PH3 ? It has a newer intel chipset (i915), and a PCI-Express slot . Anyone tried it? And, another question, which pundit has RCA SPDIF output? Which one has Toslink Optical out?

Re: [mythtv-users] ASUS Pundit choice
Required adds: processor, memory Optional adds: hard drive & CD/DVD (or diskless) , tuner Only room for a single hard drive, but it has a number of USB and 1394 ports for external storage. Room for two PCI cards, but it's tight. It's a bit touchy getting the cables in and hooked up to the hard drive and the CD. The Pundit-R supports both SATA & EIDE. NOTE: The Pundit-R is ATI IGP based. This is workign well for myth but so far I cannot play America's Army on it and it seems that with certain OpenGL setups the machine crashes.

Re: [mythtv-users] ASUS Pundit choice
My interim solution yesterday was to use a little bit of that blue painters tape - used for mashing off windows and such - and put just a piece over the top of the led. The light is now dimmer and a more pleseant indigo rather than the laser beam blue. Since it's just behind the front plastic it's taped to the chassis.
