RE: Nebula TV Card vs USB Box?

["Malcolm Surgenor" <malcolm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've no experience of the USB but I've had the PCI version for over a year
now and think it's fantastic. Reception for me is very good but then I'm in
Central Scotland where I've a choice of two transmitters. The software and
support from Nebula is excellent too and I've used the card with other s/w
such as DScaler as well.  I'm always finding new features in the s/w - it
wasn't until very recently I discovered that it could act as a server and
view TV on another PC using the s/w as a client.  The EPG implementation is
good and it's PVR is okay.

The only problem I've had with it is on the analogue side where the recent
s/w version has resulted in rather blocky pictures from TiVo.  They're
aware
of the problem though and suggested that the next version my resolve or
ease
this...

So - I'm happy with the PCI version - anyone any experiences of the USB
version?

Just about to order a Nebula FreeView card.

I read one review that said reception was better with the USB version -
less
noise being external to the case etc.

Anyone got experience of either the USB or PCI version?

Thanks
