Bought this back when it went on sale months ago for around $220. It has been a great purchase and even moreso with the NFL back on. My main TV hooked up to my HTPC has the most interesting game on...

Note that if someone were to ask my opinion of Tivo I would suggest running fast away if possible. Unfortunately that is not yet possible for everyone.
Yet I believe in giving credit where credit...

Sounds like fun, and I hope it was fun. I have had fun getting things to work. It can be fun learning how to inject code (programming) into a Windows application from another application. I can do...

Thanks for the correction. Still, I've heard bad things about many of them. E.g. smallish hard drives, so-so quality, ugly and clunky program guides, having to pay monthly guide fees, etc.

You are more of "computer guy" than I am. I am just a chemist, no where near the level of computer sophistication as your credentials.
Perhaps I got lucky, but I was able to set up Media Center,...

It's actually even better though because the $40 is the upgrade from Win7/Vista/XP to Win8 Pro and will include the WMC add-on during this offer. I've seen a screen shot that shows WMC being $12.79...

Even if it costs $40 for an add on, it is well worth it. At least they are not making it only available to OEMs and only tied to certain BIOSes like they did with WME with XP.

Actually, WMC is not going to be in ANY version of Win8 by default. In fact, you must have Win8 Pro to actually get WMC as an add in:...

Well, putting aside the cost of an HTPC including the Ceton card, each month you'd save whatever your cable company charges for a DVR minus whatever your cable company charges for a Cablecard. So if...

Of course people want advanced technology but most people expect the manufacturer to make it so they can use it. It is often true that simply by investing a few thousand dollars a product sells a few...

That's where I disagree. I think there is a market for more advanced products, and people do want these.
They work well in different situations, both easier to use, and more advanced.
Is it...

When I looked at Dvdfab's forum, it seems that people have sync issues with the latest version, but it seems that 8.0.7.3 seems to be the version that not too many people have had issues with.
