Supposidly, you do nothing with the box it self. You just use WMC like you would your TV. I was afraid it would come to this, this is what I now have to find out from Comcast though since now they don't want you controlling your TV with it's own remote. You got to keep it on channel 4, and just use the box's rmote. But what does this mean for thoughs of us that want to use WMC? Are these new boxes usible with it? I just didn't want to go into this this far since it's getting off topic. This has nothing to do with Win 7, and all to do with Comcast and the like. I knew that this would come up though, but Marry may or may not have to worry about it depending on how her TV provider works things.
