Does anyone know if it's possible to use a Vista laptop as a Media Center Extender to a Vista HTPC? I have a TV card in my HTPC but I don't have one for my laptop and I wanted to save myself some cash.
Alternatively, does anyone know how to stream from WinTV 2000 (Hauppauge) straight to my laptop?

I am sure you can use it as an extender, yes. no idea about WinTV 2000 though
AFAIK there is still no media center extender software available, the only way to extend in vista/windows media center is to buy a set top box with that capability (rare in the UK) or use an xbox 360. Streaming from your htpc to your laptop would also have to be a pre recorded source, don't think you could stream live tv, but others may correct me.
