I had that card and I think it might be around the same as the ati tv wonder majin/forcer

I would recommend you give the LEADTEK tv tuner a look/see... the deluxe one costs about as much as the hauppage you have listed forcer plus it has FM stereo connection and it also has an IR remote control...

Image Quality should be about the same as well...

I have the WIN TV tuner card and find it reasonable but a bit blurry on full screen mode, I also run it at 1024x768 but not on a crt screen. I have connected mine to the outside roof areal and I think a lot depends on the signal you get. If your tv gets a good reception then you should get a good picture.
