<a href="http://slickdeals.net">slickdeals.net</a>. There are refurbished machines on there often which would work wonderful if you don't feel like building your own.<br><br>I bought a larger hard drive and the tuner card. I have a Hauppage PVR-150 tuner card in it. It works very well for standard def tv. If you are looking for High Def recording, I have heard good things about the HD Home Run.
<br><br>There are multiple varieties of the PVR-150, the one I got came with a IR remote and an IR blaster for controlling other devices. I don't use the remote much, instead I went with an RF keyboard which is very nice. The IR blaster is a nice touch for controlling a TV or VCR for those rare times when a tape is played.
