I've been using Myth for a couple years now and I love it!

My old version was very stable, and the only reason I upgraded is my
hardware started getting flaky.  The power supply went out, and some
fans started getting noisy.  And since I had one of those fancy media
cases, replacement parts were hard to find.  So I bought a new case
(standard case this time), new hard drive and a new motherboard.  I
figured while I was at it, I'd upgrade the software too (three major
releases newer than I was running).

My software upgrade was really a fresh install of a newer distro and
Myth.  Then I copied my old database and mpeg files to the new box.

Installing Myth is a LOT easier now than it was when I first did it!

Good idea!  :-)
