[vdr] Re: Necessary hardware to build a VDR



I think P4 with normal IDE-HD-Drive, Soundblaster Live if you want LiveAC3
and
 a fine Pioneer-SlotinDVD are nice. Building a silent Machine would be my
target and I think P4 would be a little too loud. A Duron or Celeron could
be better for a silent machine.
