Does anyone know if there is a TV Tuner that will work with a T61p running Vista 32?

The Hauppauge 950 USB stick also works--but not as shipped, you'll need to contact support for updated software/drivers, unless they've just posted them to their download site.

Works well now--but it was an ordeal, and the analog TV reception is terribly weak.
