I didn't find notice of this in my quick search here in the Videohelp forums.
If it has been mentioned sorry for the repeat.

Good: HDTV Support

Bad: over-the-air ATSC tuner cards

meaning not HDTV from DirectTV or Dish Network. I'm seriously starting to think that HDTVs implimentation is to screwed up for me to want in. Screw all these different standards and incompatable hardware.

Actually, yes, I quite agree with that.

Given the manner in which our various technologies have developed in the past 5 years, there should have been no reason that HDTV support cannot embody OTA and cable/sat interfaces simultaneously.

One basic card to provide these hookups would mean that any one in the USA (and likely elsewhere) could enjoy the forthcoming standard of video entertainment.

So why is it so doggone difficult to make, hhhmmm?
