I have a computer in the living room at the moment running XP Pro but I want to turn this into a HTPC type of thing.
Basically it's a P4 2.4Ghz with a Gigabyte GA-8i848P-G motherboard, 1GB RAM and an ATi 9250 128MB AGP graphics card. The 80GB hard drive should suffice for my MP3 collection and movies etc. shall be run off my external 500GB HDD so it should be okay.
So basically I want a Linux OS that can do all of this and also support my Plasma TV's ever so low resolution of 848x480 pixels.
So what's a good Linux for this? I also want it to be simple and easy to use for my parents etc.
Thanks.
