You’re Free To Meddle With What You’re Watching
Once there was a time when we’d cut short a night on the town to be home in time for our favorite prime-time lawyer drama, a weekly peep at the lives, loves and ethical quandaries of a maverick band of young and sexy defense attorneys. No more! And not just because that particular show’s been canceled for years! And not just because we almost never have nights out to abort! Because the unstoppable forward march of technological progress has finally made our mother’s oft-spoken words come true: If you’re letting the teevee schedule dictate your life, she used to say, you’re a looooooooser.
No longer shall we make personal sacrifices to accomodate the sometimes capricious decrees of the network programming coordinators! Now it’s we who are the boss, and the boob tube that does our bidding!
With Adaptec’s Dual
TV
Tuner for
XP
Media Center, we can watch one show while recording another. Not impressed? What if we record
two
TV shows while simultaneously watching another one that we recorded earlier? What if we told you we could also use it to listen to, pause and replay FM radio broadcasts? (It’s like TV without the pictures. It’s cool; you might like it.) What if we told you it was “the industry’s first
USB 2
.0 dual TV solution?” Yeah, that’s right.
