Default Run HD tv on laptop how to Please help!

Hello everyone!
I want to run HD tv on my laptop. I have always wanted to run tv on my pc or laptop but then this whole HD idea came into the picture and I said why not go all out and get the great HD picture.

Well the zv6000 HP laptop has a High definition Widescreen display(16x9 ratio not 4x3 like most LCDS on laptops). Read more about it at hp here:

Well I want to know what I need to get HD tv to the laptop screen. I have no idea really where to start. I do not own a HD tv set yet but I figured since I was getting a HD widescreen monitor on my new laptop why not hook it up as a tv too. A 15in widescreen HD tv at walmart is like over 550.00!

I also want to know is DIGITAL the same as HD? Isnt digial the 16x9 ratio too? Its the new thing right?

I found this Cardbus Digital tv tuner card on ebay. Is that thing able to recieve the digital HDTV like the over the air type thats going to be happening in 2007? Thats why I wondered if Digital is the same as HD.
Here it is what do you think??

And I found a USB tv tuner box that says its digital again. Which one is better if they both can recieve digital/HDTV?
