There are NO good USB ones, they are too slow!  Quality sux!  Buy a desktop and get an ATI ALL IN WONDER Card.  This is what the professionals use.

To connect your laptop to a TV, you should get a VGA cable and find a VGA port on your TV. If your TV's new, it'll be no problem\nfinding one. Then just connect it and watch media center and do\nyour Windows business! =)

You would need to purchase something called a TV Tuner Card.  Some of them come with remote controls and decent ones usually cost, at most, about $30.  If you have a laptop or you don't have an available PCI slot to install it, you can get external USB TV Tuner Cards, as well.\n\nSome graphics cards come with NTSC and Digital tuners built in.  You do not necessarily need to replace the entire graphics card.  \n\nHere's a cheap internal PCI one with a remote\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1698860&CatId=1427\n\nHere is an external.  They are generally more expensive.\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1961041&CatId=0

You'll need a TV Tuner PCI card. If you do that you may as well get a card that is a Video capture, FM, TV, PVR, expansion card. Look at:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/index.asp\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/

You can use what Kyle said or if you have a DV camcorder you can connect through an  IEEE1394 firewire port. If your laptop does not have one you can buy the card at any computer store.

Go to best buy and buy a tv tuner card... they'll install it and everything. Should be anywhere from 20-300 dollars, depending on what quality you go with. They'll be able to help you pick the right one, and you will still have the same old computer, only it'll be a DVR too!

Red is right. To connect cable to your pc you will need to buy a TV tuner. Because you have a laptop you need to buy either a PCMCIA or USB TV Tuner. A PCI one will not work for you. You can go to your local Best Buy,CompUSA or?????\nany other local pc store to buy one. They go for less than $150.00 I recommend the USB TV Tuner, just because it is USB so you can connect it on any desktop that has USB too.\nWhich nowadays more than 90% all do.

In case of Internal TV Tuner Card, 'Tech Com' is quite good. I've used it. 'Intex' is also fine. For more information log on to Nehru Place IT Hub's website www.npithub.com

Hunh?\n\nThe best way to hook your TV to a computer is with a TV Card (usually PCI, but PCIe and AGP are available.)  There are USB setups available also.  Some video cards include a TV out, also.\n\nYou will also need a TV tuner program, if you hook the cable in.

They are called PCMCIA cards and will fit into the side of pretty much any laptop. Slots straight in, installation is a breeze. My mum could do it.

If your laptop has an available PCMCIA slot, you could use a PCMCIA TV Tuner Card.  Its so much more portable than a USB tuner, and you won't have to plug in your TV tuner or pull it out whenever you want to pack up your laptop. You could just leave it in its slot.\n\nAnd about Internet TV - THEY'RE DIFFERENT from regular TV that are broadcasted via air/cable. Sure there are several thousand Internet TV stations, but these are just from small studios with programs and shows that you'd be unfamiliar with, a lot is in foreign language. Programs broadcasted via air are usually not available in Internet TV
