beth_leonardI'm filming the Vaulting National Championships for 4 days and working 14+ hr days. But while new DVDs were burning this evening to replace sold stock, I watched the Olympics my DVR recorded for me. In the end we went with AT&T UVerse 200 with $55 high speed internet and DVR included. If I cancel in 30 days, it's all free.
In fact, even if I were the TV watching type I might still cancel in 30 days. This evening I had to *reboot*my*remote*. The numbers would respond, but not the power or "menu" buttons. I had to get out the instructions and decided that a rebooting would be best for it. (Hold button A for 5 seconds then push button B simultaneously and enter '902' on the numeric keypad. Wild.)
I'm too tired to go to bed. Synchronized diving looks interesting. Miss Peter & Amber. Must sleep now.

Date: 2008-08-11 07:02 pm (UTC)I think with all this "just reboot it" nonsense that engineers have simply gotten lazy. Why bother trying to track down all the corner cases (plus weird ones like cosmic ray-induced memory flipping) when you can just have the customer revert to a known good state.
