[sllug-members]: PCTV PCI HD Tuner card

[u235sentinel]

I had the same experience with Comcast.  When I called about it in 2006, 
they said they were ok, no neighbors were experiencing the problem so it 
must be me (does that sound familiar to anybody???).

We had allocated $2,000 for a new flat screen TV thinking it would 
resolve the problem (as suggested by the Comcast CSR).  Thank God 
Comcast terminated our Internet though.  We fired them about a month 
later going with Dish.

Funny thing about Dish.  We noticed the TV was VERY clear and crisp all 
of a sudden.  I so we pocketed our $2,000 and decided to wait until they 
were half price.  Like now :-)

Philips 50" here we come :D

It's Comcastic!
