Oddball Update

After all the hell I went through to get it working, I have to say that Apple and I are really loving the TiVo HD. The other day we went through the list of upcoming HD movies and selected several to record. There were a few others that I thought about recording, but did not. Lo and behold, since I had suggestions turned on, the TiVo was smart enough to pick those up for me too. As if to say, “Hey, I saw you were on the fence about these, decided to go ahead and get ‘em for you anyway. Enjoy!”

Last night I watched Full Metal Jacket in HD. Today, I see TiVo suggested that I might like to see Wayne’s World in HD, too. Oh, hell yes I would! Hey there, Mr. Donut Head Man, who’s trying to kill ya?

And the picture quality is so much better than the old Comcast crap-box, that today while I was watching something in standard definition, Apple comes over and asks, “Is that high-def?” Heh…nope! But it sure looks good, doesn’t it?

Totally satisfied. Big thanks to my parents (and grandmother!) who contributed to giving us this gift. You guys are going to love yours, trust me — it’s worth it.
