<br>I have both a pcHDTV-5500 and an HDHR (and a PVR-150) and both were fairly easy to configure. I have never made use of the pcHDTV-5500's analog recording capability because I found it cumbersome to have to record the audio stream separately. I prefer the HDHR for the ease of setup and I can plug the HDHR and its associated coaxial cables in a closet without the need for extra clutter by my TV. There is also a good amount of cost savings for the single HDHR over the two pcHDTV-5500's if all you care about is the digital recording capability.<br>
