Get high definition TV on your Laptop
TV is available on some computers, but this can be reliant on how good the digital TV signal is, with digital TV, the signal is stronger but a laptop still needs a receiver as it works on a different principle as it is encoded and therefore needs to be decoded in order to make out the images.
A digital TV tuner can be a small device that plugs into the USB port and it then connected to a small antenna, once connected a whole new world of television will open up before your eyes. Similar to a home set top box, this device has a built in electronic TV Guide and will allow the user to select programmes to record too.
Here are the specs and features of the instant laptop HDTV receiver:
It uses the same ATSC tuner found in full-sized HDTVs and supports up to 1920 x 1080 resolution. Includes software that allows you to schedule and record content as MPEG4 files. Works with Windows 7, Vista, and XP SP2 (not compatible with 64-bit systems). With digital broadcasts, a weak signal will result in no picture. Includes remote. 3 1/2″ L x 1″ D. (3 oz.)
Priced at $79.95
