Not only that, I would be upgrading/replacing a linux box running MythTv. I do not see how CableLabs, whose board, members, and and interests are the cable companies, can legally get away with a direction that clearly favors buying their DVR service over using a PC with a CableCard. Microsoft should be leading in a fairer use policy for CableCards, and sales of Vista w/MC will benefit. My only other avenue is going through the congressional path. -bs Matt,

For an antenna, suggest you consider the Lacrosse which has a very wide polar plot, IF desired. Look at antennaweb.org for station locations at installation site. www.terrestrial-digital.com/pdfs/lacrosseGainCurves.pdf http://antennaweb.org/aw/welcome.aspx I live in Bellevue, WA and in order to get stations in Seattle, Tacoma(PBS), Bremerton (Ch 13), and on Tiger Mountain a wide angle antenna will get more stations for me. Of course, the Winegard should get all the important stations, depending on location. JanJ I like the machine configuration.
