So I am at UC San Diego as a math major. My dorm does not have a television and I cannot afford one.
So any recommendations on a television tuner for my laptop? I can go up to about $125.

netflix.

Go down to a thrift store and get a $40 CRT. Other than that, you'll have to get a usb one, and I think that hauppauge has sort of a corner on the market. I've got an old PCI one from them and it works. It's not impressive, and the software sucks (I don't have media center), but it gets TV, which is exactly what you would get on a TV. They drop support of old cards, and don't offer media guide services, so it's essentially just like a TV. This sort of thing isn't exactly mission critical like a video card or cpu.

We had to pay for cable at NC State ($100 a semester or so). Shit sucked, but we got like 125 channels, including a few which only played movies.

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
