Video Killed the Dish DVR:
As Mark stated so very eloquently, we lost the third DishDVR in about ten days last night. Apparently, they just can’t send us a working model; so far, two of them have died the same death and one has died a seemimgly-unrelated one. Read the story and offer suggestions here if you have any…
Did You Bring Bottles?
