They work pretty decently; quality isn't as great as a regular TV's, but I don't mind it at all. I have a ATI TV Wonder VE. It's a PCI card, should be pretty cheap. You download the software if it's not included and change the channels with the + and - buttons on the keypad. You can use the numbers for direct access, too. It accepts coax and rca connection. You hook the audio from the TV Tuner card to the Line-In or Mic of your sound card and set it up in the software. Doesn't take up much resources at all.
The TV Wonder VE is kind of old, you might want to get a tuner that comes with a remote so you can be lazy. Also you can program the software to record just like a VCR. Uses significantly more resources while it's recording. Good luck on your search for a TV tuner. For me, it was very worth it.
