I have a 25 year TV set and a digital cable box/DVR. I use an RF converter (should be about USD$20-30/each) to watch TV. My cable company (not Comcast) told me I had to get a new TV to use the DVR but this works!
I once interviewed at Lotus and I was told that the on-call week would add ~$120 to my paycheck for the week and that would only cover the first two hours of the first problem. After that, you'd get paid by the hour for off-hours support. I think this was both for full-timers and consultants.
This is the most fair system that I've ever heard of.
No, I didn't get the job...

All my life for sale is a book by John Freyer who managed to list most of his worldly possessions (even his Christmas presents) on eBay.
