Hiya, I have a few questions ask regarding Linux

Ok I have been told this can be done through Linux, I have built a Media Centre pc running Windows MCE 2005, it is located under the stairs in my house and the VGA & Audio signal are distributed around the house over CAT5, which is all well and good, but the problem is that if someone say in the bedroom wants to send an email, and the someone in the lounge wants to play music, it can't be done because its just sending the one thing everywhere, so people have said why not just have media extenders in everyroom, well I don't want that either because I might as well just built media centres and stick them in every room in the house. What I am looking for is one central machine with multiple tuners, multiple graphics card feeding each room independantly, so people can do seperate things on the one system at the same. Can this be done if so how lol?

Thanks very much,
Jack
