This is certainly Enterprise's best season, and if they had kept it on Wednesday, it might even have been salvagable. But putting it against SG1 sealed its fate.
but it's not gonna get replaced with Babylon 5, BattleStar Galactica
But why can't it be replaced by Stargate SG1/Atlantis? I agree that we need good SciFi, and Star Trek & its offsprings have been the flagship shows since Picard took off towards Farpoint Station (how many decades ago was that?). But Enterprise jumped the shark, and while this season it may have jumped back to the right side of the shark (?), few people without a dual-tuner DVR will notice it against SG1.
Yes, and I've heard that they'll be upgrading the software on existing Series 2 DTivos to include folders. Though I wouldn't hold my breath for HMO or Tivo2Go.
The only reason Microsoft didn't kill Quicken is because the government wouldn't let them buy Intuit. If they had, Quicken would be dead and we'd all be using M$ Money, no matter how crappy it is.
How did I know that the beating I stopped awhile back wasn't roleplaying, S&M, or whatever? I just knew. Luckily, I didn't need firearms, but I'm sure the woman is glad I didn't let her BF beat her for the 15 minutes it took for the police to arrive.
IIRC, the robot had the 3 laws, but the brain damage made them less reliable. The guy made a threatening move towards the robot. It defended itself (3rd Law), but lacked understanding of the fragility of flesh & bone.
I'm stuck with IEEEE (scream intentional) at work. It's either that or NS4, and NS4 chokes on too many sites. Some people are still using it at home, but I've talked a few people into switching, usually after IEEE foobared their machines.
I think it's unfortunate that RMS used the word "free". Everyone hears that word and thinks "free beer!". I prefer "open source" for that reason. "FreeBeer" software has a problem in common with proprietary software; if the developer loses interest, you're SOL. True open source software, whether GPL or BSD is different, and IMO better, than mere freebeer ware.
Personally, I watch 24, Stargate SG1, and Stargate Atlantis, among others. 95% of TV is crap, but Tivo helps me find the other 5%, including shows that air when I'm asleep or at work.

Hey, that's not fair! We're supposed to get the good stuff first!

Oops! Er, it wasn't me! Someone else borrowed my machine! Honest!!
Your "announcement" is early. It's over 2 months until April. :P

I don't have first-hand knowledge of other PVRs, but I've HEARD that they don't have Season Passes, Wishlists, or Suggestions.

The difference is that OSX is actually worth $129. Windows is barely worth $1.29.
So, Tiger will run on my new iBook G4?
In Korea, only old people backup.

The question is will they be "people", or just sophisticated machines? We won't know until they actually exist (and perhaps not even then).
I was going to say something insightful, but I had to take a pee-break, and now I forget what I was going to say.
It is, if you happen to be a homo sapien.
Will we be safe if we move to Uranus?
The virus makers will release the updated virii the 2nd Wednesday of the month.
NOOO! I'm surrounded by them! Help!
Is this another Soviet Russia joke?
Only if you're a politician.

I have 3 different banks, and all of them, even my 3rd rate B&M bank, work with Firefox. One good internet bank is www.netbank.com
