I have Time WArner cable and a DVR cable box. Usually I can fast forward fine, but sometimes it doesn't work and I have to watch the show in real time (commericals and all). this…

That's how the show is encoded, and the Time Warner DVR cable box obeys orders from TW, not you. If you want to be able to watch only what you want, you need to get a DVR that's i…

I've never experienced this before; however, I have a Comcast DVR.

I'm new to the whole iPod thingy. I have a Nano and I hear it can hold pictures. I can't figure out how to transfer photos onto it and I was wondering if I need some other accesory…

Of course this going to be a flamewar but... last week I was running 10.4.1 on a ThinkPad T40 and it was like a dream come true. I wish the PowerBooks can soon complete well agains…
