I've got a really spiffy little Pentium III board, with built-in video, 2 PCI slots, and a 933 mhz Pentium 3. I've got 256mb of RAM, although I supposed upgrading it to 384mb or 512mb is not out of the question.

Do I have enough power to use this as a PVR? The PVR-150 has hardware encoding, but I'm not sure that this is quite up to the task. (I'll likely use a SATA card and add a SATA drive if I use it seriously, so the HDD will not be a problem).
