Tech Link (Gaming): GameBridge Transforms PCs into Entertainment Centers

THG's sub-site (or is it a sister site) TwitchGuru has an interesting article up for your viewing pleasure. It's an add-on device from Adaptec (umm, I think they used to make SCSI controllers) and it looks like an old-school pager/beeper to me. Anyway, I quickly read thru it, just a fly-by browsing and found it interesting (yay, take my word with a grain of salt, I never spent a long time digesting the info there).

The GameBridge is a tiny little box that interfaces your PC with an analog video source. Adaptec refers to it as the world's smallest TV tuner, since it includes a tuner that can turn your computer into a TV system, delivering all of the benefits of a personal video recorder (PVR). Hooking up video sources, such a video recorder or a game console to a PC is one thing, but being able to convert home videos or gaming sessions into MPEG2 videos, and archiving them on DVDs, is just plain cool.
