Necessity is the mother of invention, or I have to rush my buns to record 
something I really want by Wed. morning.  So, today I went to BestBuy & picked 
up a Tivo.  I had called last night and Insight will be here Monday evening to 
install the card.  

I need a quick and dirty way to get up to speed on this thing so I can at least 
record to the Tivo from 6 to 9 am Wed.  Then I will need to know how to get the 
recording off the Tivo so some Mac in the room.  

I will read the manuals but since this has become a rush job I thought a quick 
1-2-3 hand holding would be appreciated.  Since there is an ethernet port on 
the back does this appear on your Mac and you drag the movie to the Mac?  I 
will use the HDMI port to connect to the TV, it even has a SETA slot for 
backing up.

I know some of you have done this forever so if you have the time to send a 
couple notes on timed recording and moving to the Mac I sure would be grateful. 
 

I do know I'll need TOAST, which I have not yet purchased,  but as long as I 
save the recording to the Tivo hard drive then I can move it later in the week.

Many thanks for your help.

John
