Hi everybody! (/Dr Nick voice off)

I've had 1mb bb from NTL for ages now, but I have just applied to get telephone and cable installed next Wednesday. So, two questions:

1: Will they take my cable modem away and make me use the new STB, cos I really don't want that. Everything is set up nice with the CM as it stands.

2: I have a Windows Media Centre PC. I know I can set up the remote to work with the STB, but will the media centre pc be able to control it? For example, will I be able to schedule a recording on two different channels? I know that it can't on it's own, but there must be some gadget that will do it?

TIA
Adrian
