[mythtv-users] Re: what cards and tools

Yes sir Marvin. I actually read your reply to Mr. Gary Cook, it cleared all 
my confusion. So what is a PVR-250 card? Just kidding :) 

Well, since I have a P3, but only 500Mhz, I will buy the PVR-250 and Nvidia 
FX5200. Since with these kind of setup, I will be able to watch the recorded 
program in my television set. In the future, before July 1 2005, I will buy 
the pcHDTV-3000 card for capturing HDTV signals. Lastly, I will upgrade my 
system too. 

Thanks again.
