Does it work well? What kind do you have?

ATI HDTV Wonder in my HTPC. Works well, but was a pain to get setup properly. I got frustrated and my girlfriend managed to get things working.

I have a Pinnacle Tv Tunner. Easy to install and get it run.

I have an ATI Remote Wonder and it worked fine on my second monitor while working or recording tv shows I missed.

I had one in my 'doze desktop several years ago when I still watched free-to-air. These days I use it in my FreeBBSD server for capturing images from my security cam.

If you don't have a TV in the office they are ok but I found i never used mine. it would have to be a slow day for me to open it up in a small window on one of the monitors. your better off getting Sirius or XM online and listening to talk radio. it doesn't get in the way.

I have a cheap ass one for my desktop. It plays XM off my Direct TV, or sports in the background.
