There seems to have been several DVB-T cards released in Australia in 
recent months, and often Linux support is better than windows.
 With a cheap PCI card you can receive HDTV and save to hard-disk. Though 
I think you need a very fast CPU for software-decoding full-res HDTV 
playback. This is definitely on my list of toys to get.
