Given the cost of storage media for the next few years, I would like to \"ease\" into HDTV.  

I would like to directly record my Comcast High Def signal directly into the DvD format but failing that I am willing to capture a high def signal and then convert that to the DvD format.

I can\'t find anything on this other than \"use a Mac.\"

Is anyone doing this or any suggestions on how to approach this??   Thanks.   /// bobbo.
