I have a pvr350 and a pvr150, as well as an old wintv pci and the wintv pci never stayed in the box for more than a couple days. You'll be pleasantly surprised how much better the quality is with the pvr cards, in my opinion. They look fantastic. I have other reasons for not keeping the wintv pci card in though. Because I'm using the pvr350's tv-out, it just can't produce a smooth, clean playback of mpeg4 or rtjpeg encoded files since it's not using the decoder. So I'm sticking with the two pvr's for now. ~Lou
