I've always wanted to build a HTPC, but the only hardware I've got lying around is a G4 Mac tower. Therefore, a few questions:
Edit: The Mac is a dual-867Mhz w/1 GB of RAM. HDD is irrelevant because that's cheap.

Juriko posted:They have some videos of linux MCE out there, and it is what you would expect from a linux media center. Overly complicated, to many features and lovely UI. It honestly has one of the worst UI's I have seen in a media center app, and I have seen a lot. It suffers from "use every square inch of the screen" syndrome and shows no design cohesion. Which package was this? I've seen some screens of MythTV, and they didn't strike me as that at all.

Does anybody have any HDD recommendations? What brands to stay away from, what's not worth the money, etc. I'll probably be using SATA, for what it's worth.
