I know I'm being really nitpicky here, but the temperature trend line on the IS daypart forecast is really jaggy and not antialiased. It bothers me.

My question is how are all of the Intellistars going change at once if they are at our cable headends? Is there some kind of button at the TWC HQ's they push and it sends the new GFX to the Intellistars all at once?
From what I understand and based on previous large-scale updates (August 15, 2005; October 23, 2007; June 2, 2008; and March 11, 2010), the update is downloaded by the STAR ahead of time and then TWC sends a reboot/reset command to the STAR a few minutes before the changeover is set to happen which triggers the change.

On the one hand, I'm surprised they lasted this long.  On the other hand, not everybody can afford digital cable, an internet connection fast enough to stream/download movies, or even devices on which to do so.  For them, Blockbuster was really their last choice for watching movies "on demand."  I guess the digital divide is only going to widen, and they'll be left with no other choices now.  :(
Netflix still offers the mail-order DVD service, plus there are still services like Redbox.

Also, it looks like the new graphics were inspired by Windows 8.
I thought the exact same thing. It's very Metro/Modern-like. I like it. :|

Looks like there is a HiRAD outage right now. Both my domestic IS and Weatherscan are reporting no CC.
