I just bought this TV tuner dongle and I'm pretty impressed with it. Initially I was thinking about buying an LCD monitor with a built-in TV tuner so that I could watch TV on my laptop but I decided to first check if there were any tuners that I could connect to my computer. I found this one on Tiger Direct’s web site and the reviews were pretty good so I decided to try it and it works pretty well. I can’t pull in any HD signals with the included antenna but I’ve hooked my laptop up to regular cable with it and it works fine and now I can even schedule it to record shows to my computer. Pretty neat for around $100.

Look, man. You can play with your dongle all you want. But don't go talking about your dongle here. If we wanted to see your little dongle, we'd come to visit.

But don't invite us. There would be pointing and laughing. At your dongle.
