I'm hoping to get a USB based tuner, but it looks like these are more than $99 a piece. I like the Linux compatible notion, but I worry that it won't work in Windows. I'm in a tight spot, I have a Windows machine that I can't just run Linux on because it is meant for Windows programs that don't work in Linux like Minitab for example. On the other hand, I want a tuner for this machine because there is no room to drop in a small television. I suppose I can dual boot the machine to get around the needing Linux for the tuner issue, but if the tuner is PCI based and causes a problem with Windows, I won't be able to unplug it to run Windows. I like the idea of being portable also as this machine isn't in a good place for me to hook up my play station. If the mentioned site had a USB 2 version that works in Linux and Windows XP, that would be much more attractive. I want a Linux compatible tuner for this Linux based P4 desktop system I'm typing up this email on that is also Windows XP compatible for the other system. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
