Considering buying, have a question.

I'm soon going to buy some sort of TV Tuner and software to accompany it. I want to run my cable through my computer and still play it on my tv, using my computer as a DVR type device, is this possible and would SAGE TV be the program i would need?

Thank you very much for your time, Austin.

I also have an xbox360, i've been trying to find some how to guides on the internet to answer these questions but can't seem to find any? are there any comprehensive guides out there that any of you could recommend?

you need a tuner, and a remote. alhthough the remote is only required if you want to use sage as a 10' app.

if you don't have a modern video card (doesn't have to be expensive) you'll probably want to add that to the list too.
