Yeah, this right. You need a TV toner that you can put the Comcast card into. I forgot about this. But when I talked to them, they said it should work just fine like it use to. Again, if you all want to go deeper, which I would want to, E-mail me off list because when you get into things like Comcast and the like, I guess we are going beyond the scope of the list.

Gary, This is Vicky. I had thought to work with a TV tuner in my new Windows 7 computer with Jaws 13, but no go. My ISP, Comcast, says now I will only be able to work this with one of their cards, which I will be having installed on Wednesday January 4. This will be replacing my Set Top Box, so I'll be paying rent on it each month, just like I have done on the Set Top Box. What ISP provider do you have? What card are you successfully using on what computer? Many thanks for any help!
