    I don't know much about PCI or if that is even what I'm referring to :p, but I'm very interested in adding a TV Tuner to the M17x R3. I'm wondering if its possible to get an integrated TV Tuner card and put it in the laptop, or will it have to be USB?

    For example: Leadtek - We make dreams a reality

    Thanks :)
