I know that having a slow machine will affect my experience, but I just want to get familiar with it before I drop a couple hundred bucks more for hardware. So the Hauppauge 250 wouldn't work as well as the 350 you're saying? Dewey, Can you pause and rewind live tv on your machine? I think Khanh is trying to say I won't be able to do that with the 250? I bought an nvidia fx5200 for the video out and a soundblaster card for sound. When I say the Hauppauge cards are hard to come by... go to pretty much any online merchant and every single one of them have those cards backordered :( Aaron
