Many thanks Chizow, that is a very informative post.

I am looking into the same thing right now and in addition to the ATI Models, and the Leadtek, also found the Compro VideoMate TV Gold Plus PCI TV Tuner Card interesting. The Compro has the ability to turn your computer on for a scheduled recording, and then shut it off afterwards. I have not...

I have had this thing for a 2 days and can't get it to work no matter what I do. Actually, I can get it to work for a few minutes but it shuts itself off or just freezes. Tried both the software that comes with it and the windows wireless mgmt route. Unfortunately this thing arrived while I...

Be careful about this product, I bought it and it does not work with Windows XP despite trying all sorts of things. I can get it to work for a bout 5 minutes sometimes, but it shuts itself off or freezes and just doesn't work overall. I also tried using it with my Tivo and the Tivo did not...

So you are saying that Microsoft is your preference? LOL Thanks for the advice. I have had solid experience with Linksys in the past. Would be nice if I could find a good model that was a little better looking, I am tired of the blue/black, but performance is what counts. Cheers.

It's back down to $80 now, which is still prettyd good. The big rebate may have something to do with the new model coming out, the SDM-HX73, looks to have the same performance with better speakers and a much nicer looking design.

I have been looking at the Linksys wireless G router and also started considering the Microsoft MN-700. Does anyone have any experience with the MN-700? I am starting to lean towards it over the Linksys but don't want to make a bad move.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I am going to go for the Sony unless I find out something negative about it, or a better product in the next few days. Newegg had it with a $50 instant rebate right now.

Anyone have any idea on how the sdm-x73 sizes up against the Viewsonic VP171B??? They both have pretty comparable specks aside from the Sony having speakers. I am trying to decide between buying the two and am leaning towards Sony right now.
