[mythtvnz] Ion Platform ... probably not enough for MythTV

Here's an AnandTech review of the ION Platform which might be of 
interest ...

 From the results, anything less than a dual core Atom 330 would be 
pointless. Given that this would JUST handle Blu-ray playback, doing 
anything as a combined front-end / back-end, like comm-flagging, or 
transcoding would be quite the job for this platform, and in the end, it 
probably would not be entirely usable.

It might still work, as a front-end only (for playback), but it would 
probably be at the bottom end of what is required or necessary.
