"to say that a homebrew DVR is not functional because there is no CableCard support in Linux is just plain wrong."
Totally agree. This isn't a MythTV problem; MythTV can handle the HD stream just fine.
I'd gladly lease another CableCard for my MythTV box if there was a tuner available that supported it. The only one I've ever heard of is this one, which is still not out even for Vista... at least I don't see it on ATI's website as available to end users. And I doubt it works with Linux:-(
As one who negotiates NDAs for a major corporation, I have advised clients that these "disclaimers" are inappropriate in negotiation. You can't dictate the terms of a confidentiality agreement in an e-mail sig, but only in an agreement duly signed by both parties.
Even click-and-accept agreements like EULAs are not recognized in some countries, and so we have to insist on signed paper in those cases.

We do not use disclaimers like this on e-mails, although attorneys advise that their messages should be considered atty-client privilege if marked confidential. And in those cases, they should never be forwarded outside the company.
Point is if you're really serious about electronic data getting into the wrong hands, don't use unencrypted e-mail. If you're concerned about improper use by the intended recipient, don't send the info without a non-disclosure agreement.

First top-post! Usenet started dying for me when that became a crime worthy of vituperation.
"I wish they'd kept "monad" as the name." Hey, there's a name. WiSH!

At first glance, I thought the headline read ACLU. Now that would have stirred up a hornets' nest!

Seems pretty silly to me too, at least in this case. FWIW, here's a handy and recently updated chart on US Copyright terms from Peter Hirtle.
