Even if it has NTSC, it wouldn't matter that that part of the circuitry is a "boat anchor". I doubt it takes that much circuitry and chip area to do NTSC, those designs are long paid for.
If you subscribe to analog cable, then it would still be useful for that.
If you're looking for alternatives, HDHomeRun is Mac and Windows compatible, though I think maybe you have to buy it from Elgato to get the Mac software bundled with it. HDHomeRun is also a network tuner, so you can hide it away from your computer and even place it where you get the best reception.
