Hi! I have a TV tuner for my Windows PC, its a Leadtech HDTV2000 PCI card though I know that a USB version is available, not sure whether it would work with the Mac though but the point is that this tuner is "world band compatible", meaning that it was specifically designed to work in many world-wide regions, just select your city and country upon install and away you go so I'm assuming that many other TV tuner packages available - and this one is certainly not the most expensive - will also do the same. Question though, why analogue TV, surely digital - if its available - would be the way to go with a clearer picture and the possibilities that surround-sound has to offer?
I don't want to stray off-topic so I'll leave the discussion here <smile>.
