[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 213050, member: 11550"] be aware that the gfx card is a little underpowered for MP and may give you sluggish performance. USB is the best way to go for tv cards. For the remote, get an MCE European model. great value and works really well. For TV out, you'll have issues, unless you buy an expensive VGA -> TV converter. I don't think these ever really give great quality. If you already have the laptop, why not install MP now and see for yourself how it will run, considering it's free software. that's much better than buying allt he components and not being happy with the result.
