Sheez Phil, Give him a break, Steve is a great writer. The Hauppauge HD-PVR is a device that allows you to record digital content from a cable, satellite, game machine etc from the component out port. Basically its bypassing the protections keeping us from recording encrypted content. Its used mostly with HTPC setups to view liveTV or record TV. This content previously was only accessible to HTPCs from a CableCard PC via Microsoft.
To be fair to Steve, actually this device will sell mostly to geeks because of the complicated setups for HTPCs ;)
