    So, I'm getting my laptop pretty soon, and I'm looking into getting a TV tuner, for my apartment at college. I've been told you can pick up all the terrestrial stations in the building with a tv antenna, so presumably whatever I plug into a laptop should do the same?

    Also, what's anyone's experience of tv through a laptop?
    My local shop where I'm getting the laptop told me around €140 for one.

    I got the wintv-pvr 900, I don't think that is available anymore but the 950 is the new model.

    I don't know what to say, it's a budget TV Card, does the job. It hogs a lot of the CPU/ram whaterver on my laptop (about 4 years old though) so it's difficult to have wintv on and doing other stuff without pauses.
