Buy tuner cards, put them in your PC, load Windows Media Center, shazam, best DVR money can't buy because you pretty much have to make it yourself.

VM through expensive means and I think you can use Sky providing you plug the card back into the box once in a while so it can phone home to Skynet.

I'm back!

Thankfully I have found the wonderful "Ignore" function and my sanity has been restored!

I highly recommend it.

They don't need to close a thread because of one person. They can take action against that person.

That's what I expected about 134 posts ago! They haven't, but it doesn't matter now as I have found the ignore function and I am back to a calm and idyllic place...
