Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Holy crap.

The RED ONE digital video camera was just announced at NAB. It has comparable specs to the high-end Panavision digital camera (at least as far as the electronics go. I can't say anything about the optics). While you can only lease Panavision's camera, the RED ONE will sell for $17,500.

Our wings are not tired

Apple is now selling a 17" MacBook Pro and it even includes firewire 800.

ME WANT NOW!

I'll have to take a look at the finances over the next few months.

X-posted from Natter:

Dude. Tivo is offering an 80-hour box that will record two channels at once! I've never parted with cash so fast in my life. - $250 including a year of service. Also has built in ethernet.

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

Press release from TiVo about the Series 2 DT model.

Man, I wish I knew the timing on the HDTV one for sure.

Nah, I'll wait.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Man, I wish I knew the timing on the HDTV one for sure.

I was just thinking this.

Nah, I'll wait.

I'm having slightly more trouble thinking this.

HDTV is for people with, you know, decent TVs. So no issue for me as of yet.

I don't have an HDTV compatible TV. But I plan to, and there's no point me replacing a TiVo with a slightly better TiVo knowing a much better one's on the calendar.

So that's my holdup.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm with ita. Plus I already have two Tivo's, one series 1 and one series 2, both with lifetime subscriptions. I'm hoping (in vain, I suspect), that there will be a tempting trade-in offer of my series 1 when the series 3 debuts.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't have an HDTV compatible TV. But I plan to, and there's no point me replacing a TiVo with a slightly better TiVo knowing a much better one's on the calendar.

ita is me in this regard. Also I don't necessarily know if Tivo sans lifetime subscription is necessarily more appealing than just renting an HD-DVR from my cable company.
