I've never tried drowning it though so I can't speak to how well it would do . . . or not do.
Bruce . . . gotta tell you that I have Tivo and absolutely love it. It's so much better than a VCR . . . I only wish I could get it to tape broadcast shows.Quote:

And TiVo just released a new model that will allow you to record 2 shows at once! Reason enough to upgrade! :D :D
I must have one of the newer models because for the past couple of months I have been able to do just that . . . record two shows at once. Much easier to record than using a VCR . . . and the digital quality is outstanding. All in all it was a very decent gift from my wife.Quote:

I have DVR through the cable company and love it. I record most shows and watch them later, even the same night but zip through the commercials. A half-hour show in 20 minutes....one-hour show in about 40 minutes. More time for other things. :)
We do this as well....but I must say I love the fact that I can have an instant replay of interesting moments during the Nascar race, hockey game, etc. Very useful!
TV is pointless... go geocaching... :)
I've done a few geocaches. :) TV gives me something to do while I enjoy my Gritty's...and the remote feels just like my gpsr. I'm right at home!!:DQuote:
