I'm getting more familiar with HT, networked tuners and WMC -- belatedly. [Once I got it working on my main system some years ago, my explorations slowed down.]
I've only recently acquired a laptop with a non-HD monitor screen, wireless-n (I replaced the -g), a 500GB SSD. This item is working fine, but I never dared configure it to my HDHR Prime tuner. Now I've discovered that "not HDCP-ready" doesn't mean "no digital non-HD" TV. That confusion is in another wordy thread of recent vintage under my moniker.
The wireless connection between the Gateway laptop and my router is fully capable at ~ 117 Mb/s, and I seldom have problems with it; it's thoroughly configured. One of my many various projects this year.
Are there any drawbacks with this? I can reserve an HDHR PRime tuner for it -- one of three available. I can delete channels either on the tuner software installed on the laptop, or in Media Center, so to limit the channel lineup to digital non-HD channels and content.
