USB 2.0 or Firewire TV Tuner Card ?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
Is there one out there somewhere, I am soooo happy with my 5660 , but with my flat panel extended display off of my Sager, now almost completely configured as my new desktop, I am wishing I had the TV functionality, cuz I have a COAX outlet in my office.....and that would be sweet I could place the TV viewer on the flat panel while I am doing my work on the laptop LCD

any help greatly appreciated!

thanks

I wouldn't say intimidating, just a little "put-out", maybe, and probably rightfully so, I just get very excited about things like this.....it's my second passion....

and I know there are alot of experts onthis board , or at least people who have had lots of experiences with technology

and i think the board is an awesome way to share knowledge with others

In one aspect....he is right


, I probably should have done a google search first, due to the way my question was phrased and executed

, but what i really meant to communicate to everyone

was if anyone has had experiences with any ones they really like/dislike...etc,

I like to here and use truthful testimonials from real people, not a company pushing it, that have used , bought, tested and experimented with lots of techie toys

and I would jump at the opportunity to help a fellow tech friend out by expressing what my personal experiences with products I have used if it meant helping someone to be turned on to, or stay away from a great find or a dead dud.....especially when we are talking about the fact that (let's face it) being a techie junkie has one doenside, IT AIN'T CHEAP....LOL, save us time and money by helping each other finding great products from the get go....at least that's my mission

sorry for rambling...just don't want to offend anyone, that's all.
I appreciate this board and how it gives me more knowledge.

just my .01

not much help but...

I've heard on another forum (hardforums.com) that the USB ATI TV tuner is pretty cool. No eperience w/ it here tho. I have the 8886, which has a TV tuner. I'd do a search and/or thread over there too--that board has more traffic than this one, and this question is not necessarily Sager-specific.

If anyone needs an entertainment center for a motorhome or camper, I can't imagine a better (if not more expensive) option that this 8886.

It was more of a suggestion than anything, alot of people don't even bother looking, when the information can be easily picked up.

I, perhaps, said it wrong. My apologies.

thanx fer clearing everything up . I have read every post in this forum along with all of your other posts and in none of the other posts have I found your words to be mean, offensive, etc. So I was thinkin that it might hav been worded wrong - it didn't sound like...you. Not that i know you.. but you know wut i mean.. ANYWAYZ..... I do understand your point.

Haha, kinda funny. I've turned this thread from a tv tuner card thread to a social misunderstanding example....my appologies.
