I am publishing a spreadsheet on the web that will enable you to jot down your dream PVR configuration.  If you are interested in contributing, please send an e-mail note to coronabeach at gmail dot com and I will send you an invite.  After I have collected enough data points (about 50 or 100 days, whichever is first) then I will publish the results.

The purpose of this exercise is to determine if there is a general concencus as to the preferred SW \ HW configuration.

If this exercise turns out to be a positive experience I will follow-up with a similar exercise.  Thank you for your cooperation and participation.

hmm... is it me or is no one biting on this?

just a thought, as I even hadn't put anythign up yet (*shame on me*)  but... perhaps the survey is a little *too* indepth?

Like perhaps if it was a single worksheet that was:

name or email  |   case   |  mobo | processor  | RAM | HD | optical drive | remote | tuner card 1| Tuner card 2 | Tuner card 3  |  Video card  | cooling 

(even that's a bit of work -- if someone wanted they could go through and make links to manufacturers page if they needed more specs)  Not sure if this goes against what you're trying to do... but sometimes less data points to get more data (and more meaningful data) can be worth it... right?

*shrug* not sure if it's up for discussion.
