TV Tuner Card for G4??

Are TV tuner cards (PCI Card with a Coax input on back) universal for MAC/PC? Are there specific ones for MAC? I don't want external I would like to have a PCI one. Can I get one for around $50? Can someone chime in on this if you have experimented with this? Point me in the right direction to buy a cheap one that will work for me G4 Sawtooth. Thanks

No, they're not cross-platform. You'll need to get a Mac-specific TV tuner card.

Here's a few:

I doubt you'll find one for the Macintosh for under $100, but simply googling around you might find a deal or two.
