It's designed to run with Ubuntu (Swahili for family) from the Linux OS people. It's a free download but I wouldn't recommend anybody using Ubuntu. A friend had it on her laptop, couldn't get on with it & reinstalled Vista. Can't say I blame her as it a very strange OS.
im sticking with xp till i die :^O

Mythbuntu is Myth TV and Ubuntu rolled into one. Myth TV is just PVR software, so you can do all that pause\rewind\record live TV stuff but I also have an extensive media library that resides on it as well so I just add movies and music to the box and they're all there ready to watch\listen to next time I turn it on. Takes some setting up though!
TBF to Ubuntu and Linux in general, it does take some getting used to but depending what you're doing with it it can be pretty easy to use. Also depends what you're used to. I've been running Ubuntu on and off for a couple\few years and have had Mythbuntu on a box for 6 Months and it has taken some getting to work, but now it works well so I treated it to a 23" HD monitor yesterday.

I am not overly keen on linux as its not a proper Unix OS but if I have to use one (on a server at least) then I will use Ubuntu over others due to their Longh Term Support and ease of upgrades.
Vista is the biggest pile of excrement ever released. If you really really have to use Windoz then windoz 7 is probably about the best of the bunch atm.

To right does the job no messing. It's the MK of the operating system world.
Linux is great and you can get it to do anything but it takes a lot of time and effort. I'd only recommend it to people who are interested in it as a hobby.

I'll probably log in at some point
I'll probably log in at some time during the evening..
I've got an Acer Aspire 3680,, it came with Vista. About 6 months ago I put Ubuntu on the second partition and it was great (really fast) until I started to have issues with my WLAN dropping out so I had to revert to Vista.. Last night I got rid of Vista and put XP on it!!
