Yes, I got a Blaster PC kit from Tiger Direct a couple of years ago
through some  promotion they were running.  It came without any
drivers for the "special" features (remote control, FM tuner, etc.). 
I tele-fought with Tiger for awile to get them, but then grew
frustrated with the lack of cooperation, and put the thing aside. 
Every now & then I'll fiddle with it & and have managed to get all but
the tuner to function.  I like the little thing, although it is the
slowest box I own, and, if I ever get it all to work, will probably
max out the CPU & RAM and keep it as a sort of curiosity/collector's
item!

     Anyone out there able to commiserate or help with advice?
