I've been running MythTV on Gentoo linux for almost two years now. At the time, none of the Windows software came anywhere close, and I think that's still the case even though the Windows solutions have been getting much better.

I have a linux server setup with multiple tuners (SD and OTA HD) and a drive array. I then have a driveless, fanless frontend HTPC connected to my 42" HDTV. I use the pcHDTV card for over the air HDTV reception.

It's definitely been some work to get everything up and running, and it's still a work in progress. Overall I'd say it's definitely worth it, but to me the tinkering around is half the fun of a HTPC setup. The biggest drawback right now is digital cable, but this is a problem for HTPCs of any platform.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
