My System: sky satelite . pc q6600 4gb ram 8800gt graphics card
complete beginner uk

hi,
i was going to get a freesat box but they all seem to be about £100 2nd hand.
So i started looking around to see if i could get a card for my pc.
i have a quad lmb for my sky dish.
can anyone tell me without having to go to a great expence, what are the different cards i need & what i can expect to get from them.
the problem is i like channels like dave on sky but i cann't get it on freesat but it is on sky.
can i pick up freesat & free sky channels as they come from the same satelite.
what extra can i get from it as well.
where is the best place to get info (if not this site).
& lastly do they all have 1 input (could i have 1 dish pointing at one satelite & 1 pointing at another.
my plan is to do away with my sky subs altogether as i dont watch sky movies or the sport channels.
thanks.
