Thank you Blimpman and Eddie W. You are right Blimpman, the EyeTV is very reasonable. The killer is buying another dedicated Mac (Mac mini starts at $599 $699). The Channel Master from Frys.com does sound like my best choice. Thanks Eddie W.
The thing is, the economy was different when those companies tried the stand alone DVR market. I bought a second antennae from costco recently (http://www.antennasdirect.com) and apparently there are a lot of people buying these antennas, so maybe the market is ripening for a DVR OTA product...

I'm new to this forum, but glad I registered. Hope I can participate on all levels. I have a Samsung 50" plasma (HD antennae, no cable) with coax and optical out to a Mitsubishi (1998?) receiver that has optical in. I can't seem to get audio using this path? When I press the digital button...
