- DirecTV helps TiVo... but not TiVo users. While CNET reports that TiVo's partnership with DirecTV has driven subs up to the 1 million mark, my poor DirecTiVo satellite/DVR combo is orphaned sans the Home Media Option and any of the cool new software features (e.g. folders)--and, indeed, any software updates to speak of--appearing on the standalone Tivo boxes. |

- In response to my Dial [fn] for Expose posting, Craig Morgan pointed out some further Expose voodoo: Map the [fn] key near your left pinky finger to the All Windows Expose view, tap [fn], then use [tab] to cycle through applications much like you might do with [alt] + [tab], except that the open windows for each of the apps hop to the foreground as if you'd hit [f10] for Expose's Application Windows view. w00t! discuss... |

(Although we are in the final stages of developing a version that can be relocated, if required) Intrigued, then please take a look at my profile and website. |
