I know.......  I've been dreaming of it, too, ever since I saw the first TV 
set on a PC card a couple of years ago.........

It is!  Mine arrived yesterday.  It will be a few days before I can check it 
out because I have to clear a slot in the workbench computer and it just so 
happens the hard drive is going bad and has to be replaced, too.  Time....!

THAT already exists, pal.  A 3rd party product for the CE-232 Interface 
called "VADER" is an AT card that essentially is a solid state recorder, with 
all
intercepts managed by indexes and keys for playbacks by channel, frequency, 
time, or several other variables.  Only one at a time, though.  A software 
version of the much the same thing is about to come down, too, I hear.
