build the circuit at http://www.lirc.org/receivers.html  Its a very 
simple circuit, only has 5 components.  Then, get a usb -> serial 
converter and plug it into that.  You could also get the Microsoft MCE 
remote, which has a ir transceiver (Though the last update I know of is 
the ir blaster isn't working yet in linux).  The Microsoft MCE remote is 
usb.
