OMG, if you have never smoked salvia, take a good look at the background, and picture all those dots tracing while the whole screen scrolls at an angle. o0
The 98-02 (6th gen) Accord Coupes where the best of the bunch. The 03-07 (7th gen) failed to impress. But if the production model looks anything like the concept, they have one already sold.
I wish Holden would be released in the US as Holden and not a crappy GM product. Pontiac does a good job of diminishing Holden's name with junk stateside.
My TiVo (Humax DTR800) had every single one of those problems in the main post and then some.
- Thumbs Up/Down only worked when pressed using the Guide. If pressed at any other time it would just flicker what was supposed to happen then make the wrong "BONG" noise. - Changing the channel would first flicker the TiVo to go black, then reappear, then dial the numbers to change the channel, then actually change the channel, then bring up the info for that channel. Total process took about 5 seconds and has done it sense the day I got it. - DVD Burning would require another disk if the recording was slightly over 60min long. - Would pop up a message telling me my cable box was off, but was too stupid to do something about it. - The HDD vibrated the TiVo and made a very low pitch noise that would fade in/out and would pass right through a pair of earplugs. - Somehow thought I was gay and started recording random shows from Lifetime, Bravo, and We. (had to disable those channels) - Recorded random shows - Couldn't record two shows at once or record one while watching another. - Took a good 15min just to boot up or restart. - Cost $13/month on top of my cable bill.
I just switched over to Comcast's DVR and only have good things to say about it, so far. It does everything I need it to do for $6.50/mo, and I'm not out $800+13/mo just to have a THX logo on it.
What about Red vs. Blue that is using their original content AND making a profit? Sounds like they are just trying to kill off anything else before it reaches the “too popular to stop” stage.
