For the PVR feature, can I use a normal antenna. Or even ge a cable card adapter? Or is it only server based?

You need a backend to view live TV. XBMC will work with Many Backends. You will need a Tuner Card (Antenna or Cable Card) to work with the Backend software. You can actually have the backend software and the XBMC PVR frontend on the same computer if you want (assuming your machine is powerful enough etc) Be aware the Cable Card will only work with Copy Freely content.
