More parts (giving no extra functionality) and is a better heater than
the 150. It's an older design, so it uses 2 chips where the 150 uses
1. Also, the 250 will not work in a 3.3V PCI slot (only works in a
5V). The 150 works in either 3.3V or 5V PCI slots. The 250 costs
Hauppauge more money, so they pass the cost on to the buyer.
The 150 is a better card (it even has a potential to give a better
picture quality than the 250) and saves you money.
