One of the options available for the Superguide sat TV adapter is a Centronics-compatible parallel port. It would probably be pretty easy to attach it to a PC. It was originally the intent of Superguide to be able to interface it with a personal computer to be able to print formatted listings. Pick up a copy of your favorite sat TV magazine and call the people at Superguide directly for more info. General Instruments is also working on something called Videopal that is supposed to hook into your data output of a Videocipher. I don't think Videopal has gone beyond the concept stage yet. Videopal is supposed to hook up to personal computers too. Bill
