Which RF Receiver for Harmony One on PC?

Hi, I posted a similar question in the HTPC section, but maybe here will be better.

I'm planning to get a Harmony One for my equipment, but also want to use it to control XBMC on my PC. I can sort out the XBMC part of things, but would like some advice about which RF receiver to use with the PC.

Is anybody using a Harmony One with success on their pC? If so, would you let me know what receiver you are using?

Harmonys, like most other universal remotes, and original remotes, work with InfraRed, not RadioFrequency.
IR attachments for computers are available and other users will be able to advise on these.

Oops, my mistake, thanks for that Logiciel, I (wrongly) assumed that because there was an RF extender it worked off RF and not IR.

That's OK.
One or two models, not including the One, can use the Extender, which converts the IR to its own form of RF, transmits that, and turns it back to IR for the devices.
