HDD might be a safer and more interesting way to play TIVO. I might get a TIVO though but only because I'm a techno-masochist who gets off on learning curves for new electronic gizmos and then their inevitable failures/bugs/snafus! Frustration turns me on. My Rio 500 is on order!

If you bought IPO you could of had the programing actually recreated for you by live actors. I have traded it and done well. I am to the point that I am so sick of trying to understand the logic of this crap. It is such a game. It is just like pennystock of the eighties where inflated stock made promoters and insiders rich. The difference today is scope. These game is much bigger and the promoters are venture capital. But you can't blame them. If people will pay a fortune for an idea without you actually doing anything, you would be a fool not taking the money. ] Note: this isnt pertaining to TIVO. Talking net companies coming public too soon.
