First off XYZ Computing takes a look at the Lian Li V1200 Plus Case. Another glipse of their fantastic product line.
Lian Li's V1200 Plus represents the apex of enclosure technology to date. Lian Li is a long time favorite of computer builders, especially those who are willing to spend more so that they will get the features and design benefits of a high end product. This case has a formidable price tag, but with its great looks, innovative layout, and brand reputation it has more that a few things going for it. At 210 x 490 x 625mm this case has the depth of a full-tower, but not the height. This makes it perfect for extensive systems and for people who need to tinker inside the case.

anyone looking for PVR card with as good quality as the high priced Hauppuage cards, take a look at the THeatre 550 chipset, I have a Sapphire built one and it rivals the Hauppauge for picture quality for half the price (about 74-80$)

Agreed...

Newer technoloy tough..

Only issue is the pause between switching channels, and Linux support (of course that will soon follow)

true, for that matter outside TV software, BeyondTV supports the card but not well. There most other freewares are yet to support that chipset either. the pause between channels is present on all TV Tuner cards I have ever used.
