I'll email you the details in the next day or so. Yes you can watch all cable channels on your computer and still do you computing.



The feed will be in a window just like any other program you open. Check the computer shows in your area. Like www.marketproshow.com



You can usually get parts at about half the regualar price.

you still won't get HBO Vosko. Here in Jersey, to get HBO they have to physically change something in the connection box up on the telephone pole. My cable descrambler gets every channel except HBO. However my satellite setup.....well.... you seen my 890 channels

If you have a cable modem and a tv tuner card it configures everything for you so you can get HBO you jsut go to the website and get the feed from there. It's not like the regular tv cable service.
