Wow! Control your tv from your Mac? Does it work with things like Verizon Fios? I quit watching tv when we got that instaled. If something's not completely accessible, I generally tend to avoid it and use alternatives and there are way too many things with these new tv packages that I cant use. So this is really cool. Could I set my vcr with the Mac and use the menus on the tv etc?
