I just purchased this wonderful device called
WINTV--it is a decoder so I can capture clips from
cable TV, antenna TV, vcr, dvd, etc. It is marvelous
for teaching and conference presentations. I am giving
a paper next week at PCA and I was able to integrate a
DVD clip into my PowerPoint. I am very excited about
this and see a lot of educational possibilities!!!!
