1 WinTV-PVR-500 MCE or 2 WinTV-PVR-150 MCE

2 of the 150's would be cheaper, wouldn't they do the same thing as the 1 500??
If not, what would the differences be??

Thanks,
Cluck

2 x 150 does the same as a 500, butt 2 x 150......

1. Takes up more space in your computer, look at future expandabillity.
2. Requires 2 antenna connections
3. Consumes more power

A PVR500MCE is just a cleaner way of doing it.
