[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 800594, member: 310216"] Looking to the future when my plan is to sell up and tour Europe in a camper, are there any laptops with a built in HD receiver card? I'm wanting to avoid a USB add on receiver because of it's need for an external power supply and the fact I might be in a remote place without a power hook up. (Yes, I know I could get a small generator) An alternate would be a laptop with room to install a card (E.G. a TBS6925) but is this a feasible thing to do? I've searched for a laptop with expansion card slots but either they don't exist or I'm not wording the search correctly. I'm not too bothered if the card (or laptop) isn't capable of powering a diseqc motor. I'm planning on having a roof mounted dish which I can either move manually or will have it's own positioner. (I suppose a 1.5M dish on the camper roof would be a little OTT?) [/QUOTE]
