Rabid TiVo Fanaticism

Posted by michael on Sunday April 20, 2003 @09:58AM from the evangelical dept.

surfacearea writes "The New York Times [free reg] is running an article that, without sounding like over-the-top blatant product placement discusses the reasons why TiVo owners are at times frighteningly fanatical. Personally, I won't bother to find out first hand until they slap a recordable DVD drive in there."

I'm 1.2.1. Does 1.3 block it? Or do I need to get the 1.4 alpha?

I can't believe I am going through this much trouble to block one lousy popup. When are people going to get the hint - we DO NOT LIKE THESE POPUPS AND WE WILL NOT BUY YOUR PRODUCT -- FOR THAT REASON. It's the same for me with telemarketers. I won't buy from them for that same reason.
