I've been trying to get a grip on what is out there in terms of TV
dispayers for Windows.  I'm looking for a board which allows you to
view TV(cable, inputs such as camcorders and VCR's, etc.) without
an additional tuner.  I thought I had found it with Aview's
Desktop TV, but it seems that you cannot run it within a window,
only full screen.  The cost is also important.  I can't afford
more than $400 - hell, I can't even afford that!  Haupage puts out
something called Win-TV which I have not been able to determine 
whether it requires a separate tuner.  Also, I have only seen one
mail-order company advertizing it - for $450, which is not that much
less than it's list price ($500).  Finally, there was a small piece
in this month's Computer Shopper about a product by New Media
Graphics called "Watch-it."  The article didn't state clearly whether
it required an additional tuner, but seemed to imply that it didn't.
Unfortunately, though I've seen a few of New Media Graphics'
products advertized by various mail-order companies (such as
"Super TV Windows") which cost way over my budget, I have not seen
this "Watchit" in ANY ad.
There's another feature that I would enjoy having, though could live
without: the ability to capture images to graphics files.

My main questions is this:  does anyone reading this have more thorough
information on the choices I have?  Also, does anyone happen to have
any contact information for New Media Graphics?  Thanks!
