actually seen one, and there only seem to be a very few for sale.

 You can get a VCR very inexpensively these days, for
 under $50.  You really should try it.

  Colbert's show is hilarious. I watch it several
 times
  each week. It's a total sendup of the pompous,
  self-righteous, conservative shows out there. Very
  funny and witty.
 
 The funniest thing is that there are conservatives
 who are big Colbert fans because they don't get that
 he's doing satire.

That is very disturbing!

 And for those that want to store more stuff for a while than the
 tiny hard drives on Tivos provide

They are tiny--how much room is on them, 12-24 hours, or something like 
that? No wonder they haven't sold many, even though somebody seems to 
be pushing them with all their might...You can record this to your 
Tivo now appears on every online show description.  As far as 
recording stuff goes, I'd bet DVDs will be the best thing around for a 
long time.

Sal   And for those that want to store more stuff for a while than the "tiny" hard drives on Tivos provide, there is this $50-100 thing you can hook onto your "PC" -- the PC is a new thing some pundits say will be really big someday -- and store on your 500 Gig $100 drives forever. And share with friends. and Edit. And send to UTube. Even Butn to a DVD, if you are still into archaic hard medium. There are also kits, which can easily be self-installed, which expand on your TiVo HD size. I highly recommend a TiVo or DVR, you'll never understand how you lived with out one. You then only need to watch what you want, when you want. And it's easy to transfer shows to DVD or across a wireless network. Some cable companies or satellite companies offer a DVR for free or for about 50 bucks.

Mine holds 120 hours or so, which is plenty. The actually unit is only slightly larger than my old satellite receiver. The smallest ones you can get now hold 80 hours, unless that's increased again. You don't have to buy a TiVo, you can also just buy a plain DVR if you like.

I used to tape everything.  Then I got this convoluted cable system  that gives you 200 channels and ever since then I haven't been able  to figure out how to tape with this system.  I've even got my cable  company's customer service on the line to help me hook things up  properly...to no avail.  I guess I should get that new service that lets you record all sorts  of things digitally so I don't have to stay in the dark ages. And of course you'll get to skip the commercials! That's what I like the most, in addition to being able to "pause" live TV.
