luckily the DVD/HDD recorder part works and he got a hotrodded DVR/VCR for cheap because someone there goofed and thought it was a regular JVC DVD player and marked it as such

unfortunately a big 60 inch widescreenie HDTV is hard to mistake for something else but...... one can hope right? hehe
heres a page about the player

he done damn good this time

TiVo people pay a lot of money for those Maxtor Quickview drives. They say they're better for DVR's but personally I know it's hype. That was a hell of a deal you got for sure!
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
