Slingbox Setup

Okay here's the deal. My household is a mac dominated household. I am the computer guy in my family, and now I'm at college, and the only way I can catch the Sabres games is if I get a slingbox.

Slingbox requires a windows operating system, and we have all macs. If my computer illiterate family can plug all the cables in right, can that be set up from here, or would I have to be home to do it with my boot camp computer, as no one else in the family has windows installed on their macs?
