There are about a zillion reasons why I want TiVo- here are the top ten:
10. My fiancee loves TV.
9. I hate commercials.
8. We have three favorite shows, but are often out when they're on.
7. I will forever kick myself for not taping all the episodes of Baylon 5.
6. Want to make commercial-free tapes of "Sex in the City" for our friend who doesn't have cable.
5. I'm tired of tapes getting caught in the VCR.
4. I can't stand the channel guide on our cable system.
3. I want to be able to single-step through Republican presidential commercials.
2. TiVo runs Linux, and I go for penguins.
1. No more blinking 12:00!
(#2 was a reference to the Lyle Lovett song.)
I won the TiVo.
