Gnome Girl is asking "why haven't you posted lately?" I have one answer: Tivo.

Tivo has completely changed my life. Now there's never "nothing" on TV. I record something like eight hours of shows per day and it soaks up my three hours of entertainment time every evening.

Thanks Buzz and Ernie for getting me this evil box.

Yup. Another Tivo convert. Praise God!

We've had our Tivo for about a year now and could live without it now. Even my 6 year old Tivo's things so we can all watch many episodes of Power Rangers over and over and over...

Our first Tivo died though and we just bought one of the newer ones with 80 hours of capacity. Sweet. This time though we got the extended warranty. The hard disk on our first one died twice. What kind of cheapie hard disk lasts for 6 months?

Despite these problems, we still love it. We watch what we want, when we want. No commercials.

HP pulls back 2003 outlook. Sail-trimming [The Register]

Carly said we're ahead of the cost-cutting goals but she's not going to raise HP's earning estimates. Good news, bad news. Still... It's better than predicting 15% revenue growth with no chance of making it.
