whole flat entertainment sys? help req!

[tim_n]

I'm moving into a one bedroom flat with a seperate study, kitchen and living room.

I have an old school sky box (six years old I think... but no satelite dish yet). I'm looking to buy a PC to run mythTV (or similar system) which can record from this sky box. This will output to scart, which will be split three ways to a TV in the living room, bedroom and kitchen. I'm looking to record stuff to DVD when required. I'm happy to make my own cables etc

I also hope to connect to it via my laptop via wireless.

So:

1.) Whats the best value equipment (motherboard, chip, ram, dvdrw, graphics, HD & recording card) for this enterprise.
2.) is mythTV best?
3.) how do I control the skybox?
4.) how do I split the channels without interference?

Preferably I'd like to make this sub £1000 (or less!)

Just found these systems - seemingly no Sky integration system (not that I expected one...)

...but you can swap out the Nova T TV card in there for a satellite/cable TV card perhaps?
