    Just BBC and ITV (and a random shopping channel as well, because that's important)

    Vista/XP Media Centre don't do HD at the moment, though an update that has native freesat and H264 support is imminent. The beta can be found in the wild but the emphasis is on beta, as people have had greatly varying success. Media Portal plays nice with freesat though (SD and HD)

    To use DVB-S within MCE at the moment there is trickery in the drivers to convince windows that its a DVB-T tuner and it can see the channels that way. For HD you would need to use something like DVB viewer.

    I bought the other half her iPhone as she sorted me out with mine the other day.

    I also bought the ingredients for the most disgusting yet tasty pizza:
    http://www.funnypictures.net.au/pizza/
    I must stress that I used proper chips that I cooked myself as well as proper burgers not McDonalds crap and that the picture above is not mine.
    It was a little bit filling to say the least.
