I am building a new computer, its is a biostar mb EVERYTHING on board including the cpu, a 2200+ sempron. It will have 512 ddr and an 80gb 7,200 rpm hdd. It has to removable drives so I can put them in and scan a customers hdd or clone one to another.

This system is on a serious budget and I thoguht of puttin linux on it. But if I do....

Will it support my Hauppage tv-fm card?
Does linux nowhave FULL read write support for NTFS without a problem?
And what would be available for an A/V scanner?

I havent been in the linux world for long time....

Thanks
