CHEMAR:: THEY DON'T MAKE THEM ANYMORE.

I know because I went on the interet, to Panasonic, on Ebay. YOU CAN'T FIND PANASONIC OMNIVISION. That's the ones we love.

Oh yeah, you can buy refurbished, but who wants refurbished? They are junky.

All I wanted was a nice VCR. Is that tooooooo much to ask??

Of course.

Well, I'm going to call up directv.

Now before I call. Let's say I get 2 boxes. One for my bedroom, and one for the living room. Who sets these things up?

Do they come in the mail, and I just plug it in and that's it.

I gather I take the coaxial cable that comes out of the side of my house (the directv cable), and is now presently in the back of my cable box, I gather I take that cable and plug it into the NEW DVR thingee??

Is that the whole magilla?? Doesn't seem hard to do, if that's all it is.

The only hard part is learning how to use it.

I can do that.

I THINK!!!

LOL

YAY!!!!!! Yeah get two TV's hooked up and you will be happy.

Depending on what box direct TV has in your house now what they will likely do is come by and just change out the boxes for you.

They came by to install it right?

Wait till you get them....its so easy to use. The best part is you can set up a program for a season pass so no need to set it each time its on, the DVR will remember.

Seriously its just a better VCR without the tapes.

And for $5.99 extra its so worth it.
