Thanks guys.  I'm just looking for 1 computer.  Nothing more. I wouldnt be streaming or anything.  The wireless would just be used for internet access.  But what I could do is just use a wireless bridge and run a cable to the system if that would be a better option.  I will check out the Mythbuntu and see if thats a little bit better option for me if this doesnt work out.

Users / Basic LinuxMCE use

I am new to the LinuxMCE community and am looking to set up my first Media Center.  I know that LinuxMCE can do alot of cool stuff but all that I really want it to do is store my movies and music so they can be viewed from my living room TV.  I dont need it to follow me in every room, (Plus its hard to hid all of that cable in an apt.) 

Since it is an apt. I was wondering how well it will work if I want to use a wireless card to get it connected to the internet.  If anybody has ever tried this and what their experiance was with it. 

This is the list of the hardware that I do have already

ASUS K8NE-DELUX mobo
Nvidia 5200 FX video card
and the cables that allow a computer to be hooked to my TV. 
Microsoft MC remote

What else would I need for my basic needs on this project?

Thanks for the help in advanced
