Steampunk
Sir Lionel, it is good to hear from you, even if it be a mere parchment marked with your well-manicured ink. Since last we met I have created a marvel! It is known as the Pinnacle 800i PCTV HD PCI Card and the story of how it was discovered would turn a man as white as a monarch’s pudding! I was on the very edge of the grand Everest, and out of desperation had just eaten my Sherpa. The snow was as thick as a Hun’s moustache and the air as thin as a Frenchman’s morals. I could hear a melange of letters as though from the lips of Zeus himself” PCI, ATSC, NTSC, ClearQAM, FM radio! I had no idea what they meant but they filled me with such joy! The words “Cable ready” and “Designed for PC”, “Compatible with Windows Media Center” and “included A/V cable”! I leaned closer, closer to this sweet mystery waiting in the attic of nature! And that, Sir Lionel, is when I slipped and fell into the Yeti’s nest.
I will not bore you with the tale of my escape, though the struggle was titanic and I was quite brave, if I do say so. But once at the bottom I arranged passage to London immediately. For in my mind, Sir Lionel, are the plans for this thing called a Pinnacle 800i PCTV HD PCI Card, and I shall be the one to reveal it to the world! And perhaps together we can discover what to make of this “television signal” it will require.
All my gracious best,
Lord Addict Von Drunksburg
