Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So the lifetime service goes with the unit. Does that mean all the lifetime services become moot in 2009 when analog tv service is supposed to end?

Excellent question! I suppose it depends whether or not TiVo wants and finds a way to support the existing analog boxes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is there any way to replace a single key on a laptop keyboard? I now have a work laptop (a Dell Latitude D600, whatever that may mean), and the "n" key is missing. As in, ripped completely off the keyboard. I can still use the letter "n", it just takes poking at the little empty space until the sensor notices, but that's, well, aggravating.
Anyone?

Depends on the keyboard. Perhaps you can find a similar (junked) Dell and grab one of its keys.
If the keys just snap in and out, maybe you could take a key that's not used too much and use it to replace the 'n' (but I'm not sure I'd try it without knowing for sure that the keys can just be snapped in and out).

Your tag here.
the "n" key is missing
Jilli, I called Dell and they said that if the laptop is still under warranty, they will send you an entire new keyboard to replace it. The part is customer-servicable.
I got a direct number for you to call them. It's 800.822.8965, option 1, then x.7288538. They'll want either the Service Tag or Express Service Code from the machine.
Hope this is helpful.
ETA: If you do find a spare key, here's a howto on installing it [link]
