Hauppage PVR 250 vs. PVR 250MCE

I am going to build a Media Server that uses Sage 2.0 as well as Sage Client. I will be running windows XP on both the machines, I was wondering which tuner card do I want and what is the difference between the 250 and the 250MCE?

Thanks
-ST

Different connections (the MCE has real RCA audio connections) the MCE doesn't come with a remote, the MCE has an FM Tuner. That's about it, they're basically the same card with different options.

Why does the Hauppauge site states the minimum system requirements as follows for the 2 cards:

PVR-250: PentiumŪ III processor 733MHz or faster for TV pause with full screen playback

PVR-250MCE: PentiumŪ IV processor 1.2GHz or faster for TV pause with full screen playback

That's almost double!!!

Not arguing, just wondering!

Darn, and I thought I had looked everywhere... with my eyes closed maybe.

Thanks!
