TiVo and Rendezvous

An anonymous reader writes "Just found this press release on the Apple web site. Time to upgrade the TiVo?" Looks way excellent. Right now I have an old iBook sitting on top of the TV, and it streams MP3s via AirPort from the server. But it would be so much better to just listen to the MP3s through the TiVo instead ... and have access to my iPhoto albums too? Sweet. But I would still want it to be wireless: Josuah writes "Alex King has set up his TiVo 2 to download its meta information over his 802.11b network, instead of the landline. He's got step-by-step instructions up." I'd probably want to use 802.11g though ... lots of data, this is.

    I think you need a little less TV in your life and a little more learning.

    I think you need to pull that stick out of your ass, pull your head out of the book and get a life. But hey I could be just as baselessly rude, abusive, and self-righteous as you are.

    I'm sorry, you're right. This is what happens when an Apple story makes the front page -- riff-raff like me wander into the Apple crowd and make fools of ourselves like this.
    I'll go back to the WinTel corner now and leave you pinko commie fanatics to your fancy colorful computers.
