RE: UKNM: RE: X Box

Damn - I just bought a TiVo!!


Didn't know there was going to be a box with two tuners!!


TiVo is good though (now that I've taught it what I like - or rather what I

don't like!)

Easy, Pace's XTV box. Everything that Tivo claims to be but with two tuners

(so it can tape Sky 1 when I'm watching the footy) merged with everything

Time Warner was promising from Cable 10 years ago (Targetted Adverts,

Instant Replays....).


Strangely I was reading about Tivo and their elk in this weeks (November

13th) Red Herring, it felt like I was reading Advertising Age Interactive

circa 1993 (and for reference, yes I was around then). Of course, costs are

somewhat different (now, consumer buys �400 box, then Cable Company spends

$1bn on computer hardware and $500+ a box).


As for games, Dragons Liar and Time Traveler are now available on DVD.

Having never finished them in the Arcade I might just give them a go

sometime. Other than that next year's game will be the network version of

The Sims. Trust me I've seen a preview.
