I would certainly be interested.  I've been using mythtv since version 
.7, 2-3 years.  I've had good luck with it.  First on comcast cable, now 
on dishnetwork.  I also have a dishnetwork PVR, but I prefer the 
interface on mythtv.  The dishnetwork pvr is not very bright, it's 
recordings are based on time, just like a vcr.  It doesn't know if a 
show has been previously recorded, if the show is even being played at 
the entered time.  It's being used as a second pvr if there are two 
shows that I want to record at the same time.  I also have mythgame 
(Joysticks even), mythdvd, mythvideo, mythweather and mythmusic all 
fully operational.  My hardware is minimal  AMD XP 1800 on a MSI KT400 
based MBoard.  360 gigs HD space, 1 pvr250.
