Oh Neo, I know what a TiVo is, but we don't have TiVo's up here in the cold, frigid north (which is Canada by the way... the extreme cold plays havoc with the electronics, that's why I rely on my 10 ft. rabbit ears to catch my satellite signals)
Actually we do have PVR systems with Bell ExpressVu, (PVR = Personal Video Recorder) which can record your scheduled shows to an internal hard drive. However, they are pricey and I don't yet have the funds to buy one...it's really not on my priority list.
I'm not sure if Bell's PVR system is open enough to be able to hook it up to a REAL computer, like a Mac! But I guess I could settle for a PC, I have one of those too! I'll eventually need to check out the PVR specs to see if it's got an OUTPUT port for computer connection.
