I think so to.  I thought I would check one last time before I
bought/got a new TV tuner card.

Here in Ottawa, my cable supplier is slowly going to HDTV and I think I
will try to find a tuner card that works with HDTV and/or digital.  I
haven't done my research or homework yet on the latest TV tuner cards, I
confess, but if anybody has some quick advice on which card to look
into, I would appreciate it.
