That's the beautiful thing about Tivo (or any other PVR that automatically records) along with having a relatively large channel selection. You can record fifteen documentaries in a day and watch them at your leisure ;) I set my Tivo to record documentaries, or cartoons that I normally couldn't catch. Gotta love the Tivo fast-forward-30-seconds button feature to skip past those commercials in almost no time. Of course, all of these features are included in MythTV/insert other variant of Linux-based PVR. Now we just need to find a way to transcode the DirecTV signal through a computer. :( --Dan On 11/15/05, Kevin Brown wrote: > I've tried to watch TV recently... All it did was piss me off.

That is why so many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled - because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too cowardly to exercise it. The virtues which cloak these faults are called patience and forbearance.
