This is the salient point for me, too. If hardware was still owned by TiVo (in reality, not just in name) I'd have no problem with them deciding what can run on it and taking steps to prevent tampering. I'm not sure Stallman would agree with me -- users may or may not own the device their software runs on, and Stallman is all about users. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.
