Yes, indeed.

I have since built this modulator.

I'm also using the same ATI graphics card as Peter as the nVidia ones I initially used needed a computer with Windows XP.

I hope we get a few more trying this, the card cost £7 and the modulator parts came from my junk box, all but the two chips, at £10 for the pair.

So there you go, anyone with a computer with a PCI-e slot can have their own Ally Pally for about £20.
