Re: Tivos on a PC?

["Jason J Lee" <yahoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With a huge amount of effort you would get something that works 90% of the
time.

The thing with Tivo is, it just works perfectly 100%. The 10% when other
stuff fails gets you lots of stick from the gf.

I've been hanging on for PSX for what seems like forever.. I can't seem to
find a concrete date issued by sony for Europe. Magazines state things, but
no statement from sony I can find.

Hurry up you buggers!
