Dead Tivo – Follow Up

Dead Tivo – Follow Up

As reported earlier, our newest addition to the family — our beloved Tivo Series 3 HD — gave up the ghost just three weeks after its arrival.

I dreaded my call to tech support, but all that dread turned out to be wasted energy. “Jeb” — who I pictured, thanks to his name, as a shirtless country boy in denim overalls — asked only one question (“Would you turn your Tivo off and back on again?”) before agreeing to send a replacement.

The promised new Tivo arrived when promised. Once plugged in, it started right up.

Let’s hope this one lasts more than three weeks.
