I’m impressed the box advertised Linux compatibility. Not common to see that on product packaging back then in the late 90s, so it was always nice when it did.

I had an ATI graphics card with a TV tuner in the early 2000s. It was sweet to use my computer as a DVR at the time.

I'm such a fucking slut for weird tech. I want this, even if I don't have a pci slot for it.

Don't worry, all you need is a free ISA slot!

You could get a SDR dongle. The cheap ones probably won't fo AM well, but they make excellent FM tuners, as well as aircraft, 2-metre and 70cm ham bands with a pretty basic antenna.

Oddware is something I can get in to.

Amazing that the author of the drivers showed up in the comments.
