Hi,

I have a K6 II 200 running in my VDR-Box and the CPU power is more than 
enough. I even tried a P133 and it worked. If your only going to use it for 
MPEG2 , i.e. digital-tv, than the M6000 is the way to go. I will soon get one 
myself because I really need an *absolutly* silent VDR-box.
And you can still watch DivX/MPEG4 on your "low power" Epia computer using the 
mplayer-cluster plugin.
