If you live in a terrestrial area (as in...you need an aerial to pick up channels) you can order a USB tv tuner card off ebay or something similar.

I'm not sure about australia, but it works where I live

Just look around for a TV Tuner.

Here is what I have: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815116632&Tpk=Hauppauge%2b500

There are cheaper ones.

Obviously, since you are Australia, you won't be able to use Newegg, but it will give you a general idea of what you might look for:

Why don't you just post it? They're asking how to watch over the air TV on their computer.

There's nothing secret about that. You should post it so someone else who might want to know will be able to see.

They're not asking for how to obtain shows from the internet (likely less than legal) or anything like that. :)
