  1. Re:MythTV would save the builder $70 on Build Your Own DVR · · Score: 1

    You are hardly the typical slashdotter then. Using knoppmyth you could be up and running in literally 1 hr. I have used Mandrake and Suse both, and could get those distros up and running in only a few hours. Plus, there is plenty of good documentation on the mailing list, and IRC channels if you need any help.

  2. MythTV would save the builder $70 on Build Your Own DVR · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Mythtv would have saved him 70 bucks, and not having paid windows tax on the machine in the first place would have saved even more. I've been a completely happy mythtv user for about 1.5 years, and I am just blown away at it's quality and reliability. Good job isaac and company! Dave Hofstra

  3. Re:Anybody have success forwarding attachments? on Gmail Goes Public · · Score: 1

    The author of this thread I think means forwarding inline HTML images. As of last week, I can verify that forwarding inline HTML does not work with gmail... one of the reasons I cannot still recommend it for family/friends. People I know still recieve (and forward) all kinds of HTML email in the form of humor/jokes email.

    Why doesnt gmail just forward the entire html from the original email as an attachment? Seems like an easy fix to this problem before they go public. Seems to work pretty well on Yahoo mail (forwarding html emails as attachments)

    I love google as much as the next guy, but with gmail not having the ability to forward html, and with Picasa not having an option to apply changes to the original pictures, I am frustrated that they have come soooo close to making public ready software, but they miss the mark in important areas.
