Consumer snowball effect
So we bought the HDtv from Andre.
So we thought, hmm, we could get the HD cable box from Comcast.
While Seppo was trading in the HD cable box, he was talked into getting the HD dvr* on top of that.
We now have two TiVos AND an HD dvr that has two tuners to record two shows simultaneously. Overkill!
Then we thought, well, we should get a media/tv organizer that works better with our setup.
So we went to Ikea and bought two TV stands (that have been placed side-by-side) to hold all the random boxes and some of our dvds.
Then we rearranged our couch and table and rug.
Because, you know, we got a tv. That we totally hadn’t planned on getting.
*By the way, the Comcast DVR is poo-on-a-stick. The horrible, horrible interface makes me want to pull out my hair. I love great UI and TiVo certainly wins hands down in that aspect. The Comcast DVR is only worth having because of the ability to record HD.
