I've been waiting for the Matrox Marvel G450-eTV to come out (the web
site says late Q1), not to be confused with Matrox Millenium(?) which
does not have video capture. The Matrox seems to have one advantage
over the others - DualHead technology. It allows you to pipe
recorded video out to a TV while still having the monitor free for
other applications. If this works it will allow SWMBO to watch
EastEnders while I'm surfing this list :). I've not seen one so
can't comment further.
