Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y The smell of newly purchased stuff... So, there I was, Hauppauge WinTV board in hand, Mandrake 10 installed and ready to rock! Little did I expect that it would come to this. But first things first.

Sure, when you try to install a 4 year old OS with newer hardware, it doesn't have the drivers on the CD

I'm sorry, where do I get my copy of Longhorn because I was doing this WinXP.

For that matter you could probably get an 802.11b NIC from the store and ahem borrow a neighbor's connection for long enough to download new drivers, if you were really desparate.

Sure, I'll go ahead and break the law...wait..oh yeah, NO ONE has a wireless internet connection in my neighborhood. I know, because I passive scan and get nothing. By the way, can you do that in Windows?
