OK.  I'd have to budget for another hard drive to double the space I
have now.  My early tests w/ a g200 w/ mpeg2 h/w was 4GB/hr.  With
software mpeg-4 compression I'm doing 0.7-1.0GB/hr depending on
wether I do it at 480x480 or 640x480.

Recomendation for mpeg-2 capture cards?
Is the hauppage PVR250 or PVR350 software working reliably?  
I really don't like the idea of buying three PVR250's as they're
rather expensive even when bought used.
