Now we're saving a vampire from vampires. I got two words for that -- Nuh and uh.

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!

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

One more step closer to allaying my TiVo HD fears. I'm just so addicted to my Weaknees space right now.

If you used a wire, would you need a USB to Ethernet adapter?

With this model, yes. With the new HD ones, no.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So is that a business account? I mean, do all business accounts come with equal up and download speeds?

It is a business account, but not all business accounts have it. We had to jump through hoops to get it, too, although a lot of that was probably because the business accounts were pretty new at the time, and most of the customer service reps didn't seem to know what was available for businesses. Once I found someone who understood what I meant when I said that we needed, among other things, a fixed IP addresses so folks could find our servers, he also suggested that we get synchronous. Nobody had even mentioned it to us before then.

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

TiVo Series3 and HD FINALLY get TiVoToGo, MRV, eSATA drive, other new features

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That's awesome. That'll be good to know if we end up with cable instead of Directv at the new house.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

eSATA's been available for awhile, though it wasn't well documented.

Time Machine support for AirPort base station may have been scratched.

Well, all the relevant parties have won. I'm pricing out HD stuff and even getting a lower rate on my cable.

Are you getting CableCard service? I'll be interested in hearing how that works out for you.

When I said Cable Card to the Time Warner lady she brightly asked me if it was for a TiVo, so I'm kind of optimistic. It's not like back in the day when you were trying to have your home network share one internet connection and the DSL people wouldn't talk about it.
