OT: Alternatives to Tivo?

[Chipper]

  I like SageTV.  The use of the HD extenders makes SageTV a very easy 
install.

I currently run SageTV 6.x on an ArchLinux headless box with two 
Hauppauge 1600 extenders.  For ArchLinux I only had to install the TV 
firmware (which I believe is now included in the latest kernels) and 
Java.  SageTV installed quickly and then I purchased an HD Extender for 
the TV in the living room.
