Just need something real basic that will take the coax signal off my Dish receiver and put it on my 19" monitor through my desktop.

Guess I’m too impatient. Went to crapUSA and picked one up for 39.99 + 10% off.

Pretty cool though. Came with a remote and everything.

Norwood Micro. No idea if it sucks or not. Like I said, just needed real basic functionality. Not worried about video capture, or DVR, or any of that. Want to take channel 72 (the channel I have dish distributed throughout the house on) and put it on the computer.

I’m expecting a lot of relatives to be coming to visit over the next couple months so I wanted a TV in my office (have a nice futon in there). This way I can just use the 19" monitor from my desktop.
