I have tried them all although none are as polished as windows media center. I have several Windows Media Centers running at home and have tried many different tuner cards. The best cards for picture quality are the ATI TheaterPro 650 Tuner cards with an ATI HD Video card. The Hauppauge cards are probably my next favorite. I am planning on getting one of the Ceton cards in the near future so I can do away with my digital cable boxes. My Media centers are running the 64bit flavor with 4gb of ram and multiple drives running in raid 0 for performance.
