Obviously the writter lacks amoung other things a healthy unbias attitude. That and the fact he made negative comments about features his own test Tivo didn't even have has a M$ media hangmanship to it.
Back to be unbiased, you should let the reader have all the facts and decide on their own what they think. I can get commentary from Hannity and Colmes instead of the news anytime I like.
By the way for the price you put into a PC running a P4, 512 meg of ram, large hard drive; Oh and lets not forget a decent video capture card with mpeg Encoder hardware, you could have had two series 2 Tivo's.
I own a Mythtv box and a Series 2 myself. The Mythtv box is great but its a hobby and sensitive beast that consumes mass amounts of my time tweaking. My Tivo, well, it just plan works. My Tivo unlike other M$ products doesn't get me phone calls from distant relatives asking what the blue screen means!
Sure what comes out of Redmound does a lot of the same things but then we expect technology mediocrity for M$ rather then innovation. On the other hand the DOJ never stood a chance so why would Tivo?
