Hey again guys.

With your help I have ordered the following parts.

*WinTV-NOVA-S-Plus DVB-S**
*WinTV PVR150 Intenal PCI TV
Coolermaster Vortex CPU Fan
Coolermaster 450W Silent PSU

I have decided to keep my current case to and hide it behind the TV 
Cabinet for now. I have formatted the larger drive and organised another 
250Gig as the main OS drive. This will give me a total of 750 Gig which 
should be enough for a while. I keep most of my movies on an external so 
there won't be much in the way of permanent storage. The only issue I 
see at the moment is access to the optical drives in the box seeing as 
it will be hidden.

Just one question remains

Which Distro?

I have some experience with Knoppix and Fedora but that was a long time 
ago.
Which Distro is best suited to beginners?

Thanks for your help guys.

Arjan
