You can get digital tuners on the surplus market (ebay),. A friend has
a Samsung that had HDMI, but also can drive a standard PC monitor.


On my computer I use the Hauppauge USB HD tuner, it ran for about $75 last year, and it works great at pulling both HD and SD feeds. I use it on my computer which is also hooked up to my large LCD tv, so it's fine to watch.
