Anyone have this new geek gadget? Is it all that? I understand they cost $250. Is it worth it?

I don't think people want to watch TV on their computer, but I don't know.

IPTV - the TV on the internet - is going to be huge in future, on PCs and mobile devices.

Our computer in our basement is hooked up to watch tv on, if we want to catch something special we cannot get on cable - we flip on the box and check it out. I like it, why not? Seems to be the way everything is moving so why fight the current when you can embrace it and love it!
