TWC and your Cable Company / Re: Cable Provider?

« on: March 23, 2009, 09:06:46 PM »

I was more or less fine with Comcast, until I found out today that they are slacking off on the TV listings.

For example, instead of "The Simpsons", it's simply listed as "Simpsons". They are doing that with almost every channel. All I can say is, what the  .

I think that's a TV Guide thing. And also they are misspelling just simple words.
Like ESPN. It is saying Damn Sports instead of saying "Best Damn Sports Show Period". Even though I hate ESPN.

I am watching Weather Centre around 12:20 and I hear Heather Tesch sounding like a man. Are you all experiencing that same issue?

Well, my desktop PC crapped out this morning. When I turn it on, it gets to the blue HP splash screen (before it even starts to load the operating system), and then a constant beeping starts. Won't get any further than that.

Sounds like some sort of a hardware failure or issue of some sort, which wouldn't surprise me since this machine is over 5 years old.

Imminent Hardware Failure. Check with your owner's manual for more details

Regarding NFLN and comcast this is what the I want Nfl Network site states

http://www.click2locate.com/nflnetwork/default.asp

first type zip and if available click continue on comcast and this is the message you get!

NFL Network is carried by your area's cable provider, Comcast. Unfortunately, Comcast, is overcharging you to watch football 24:7 on NFL Network. Other video providers include NFL Network in their basic package for no additional cost. Make the switch now to AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV, Verizon.

To stay in touch and get the latest updates on NFL Network and special offers, fill out the information below.

Thank God I don't have Digital Cable.

Yeah, I switched to FF a few years back, and never again will I use IE. 

The only 2 browsers I use is Opera, and Mozilla.  When I go on eBay, I end up using that IE.
