I'd like to connect my laptop to my cable or sat system without going through a cable box. Is it possible?

I also have the option to just attach to my cable outlet. I was looking at the Pinnacle PCTV HD Ultimate Stick but it wasn't clear if I needed to hook up through the cable set top box or not. And, gee what a surprise, the Best Buy clerk was not too much help. |

I like the Slingbox recommendation.
I'm going to be doing that pretty soon myself. Just haven't pulled the trigger yet. I've seen some pretty good deals on newegg.com |

I remember when tin foil used to be the cure all.
