As a platform, the Macintosh computer has almost surpassed Windows as the best system to use as a media center to watch video content either on the computer's monitor or on your TV.
This hasn't happened because of Apple. We can thank Elgato Systems for single-handedly supporting TV on the Mac.
While the rest of the world was waiting for Apple to create the Apple TV, Elgato was producing outstanding TV tuners and DVR software for the Macintosh.
Its newest entry is one of the smallest — the $149 EyeTV Hybrid.

SID MEIER'S PIRATES!
For: PSP
From: Full Fat/Firaxis/2K games
Rating: Everyone 10+ (Mild Violence)
If the PSP must be a haven for downgraded ports of console games, they should at least be games that don't choke on the system's limitations and portable nature. That's the case with "Sid Meier's Pirates!" which not only fits on the PSP but arguably belonged here all along.
