TV card - tuner (not dvb)

[Shlomo Solomon]

My computer is dying. For reasons not relevant to this post I'm sure it's a 
hardware problem, so I'll probably be buying a new one. 

I have a generic SAA7130 PCI TV card that has worked for years. It's connected 
to the analogue output of a YES "MEMIR" (and before that to HOT). I use tvtime 
(and sometimes xawtv)  as my TV viewer.

Unfortunately, new computers no longer have PCI slots, so I'll need a new card 
(or more probably a USB dongle). I've Googled for recommendations, but haven't 
really found a solution. Does anyone on the list have a working solution to 
suggest? My needs are simple. I just want to connect to my "MEMIR" and watch 
TV in a window, while using the computer for writing, browsing, etc. The 
possibility to record TV programs would be nice, but is NOT essential.
