Sep 2nd 2009 1:58PM Calc.exe: I installed MCEbuddy on my PC, changed about two settings in it (one of which was the default save folder) and I have recorded TV on my zune in zero steps. I'm pretty sure that it is zero steps regardless of the mp3 player you have (unless you need to manually initiate a wired synchronization) with that set up.
The hardest part is deciding which shows to record.

Ask Engadget HD: Can I subscribe to a service for just HDTV channels? {Engadget HD}
Jul 29th 2009 7:10PM Channel 7 is WHDH-HD (the local NBC affiliate) on my DirecTV setup. They interleave all the HD channels, so 7 is NBC-SD and 7-1 is NBC-HD but you can choose not to show SD when a HD version exists. Given that all of the channel numbers are virtual (try finding Channel 7 HD on a digital cable ready TV without a cable box!), I don't see why cable can't do the same kind of thing as DirecTV.
Verizon was stupid enough to coax me to DirecTV while I waited for FiOS. I have no desire to upgrade now!

Apr 9th 2009 1:36PM Fast motion and draft shows are not two phrases you hear together often. Am I supposed to be more excited about it now that it is in HD?

Aug 25th 2008 2:05PM The only problem with synergy, which got it banned from our company is that it doesn't support encryption or authentication out of the box:
"Synergy does not do any authentication or encryption. Any computer can connect to the synergy server if it provides a screen name known to the server" (They do go on to explain how you can use SSH to combat this, but this means that the end user has to be much more careful about how you set it up).
At least with this iogear solution, as overpriced as it is, you aren't leaving your computer open to manipulation.
