You'd think Microsoft would have planned better for the Digital Transition with Windows Media Center but apparently they missed an important detail.

Microsoft has always put the cart ahead of the horse. They flood the market with their products before the security has been completed. Then they spend the life of that product sending out security patches. Linux is the only OS I use.

Piggie

Again this is a direct effect of what I warned to be the "Hidden Transition". Where channels changed RF frequencies and worse where they went from UHF channel they had been on for years to a VHF channel for digital.

In my humble opinion, this was a HUGE goof on Microsoft's part. But I watched this kind of thing may whole career.

It is the hardware people not communicating with the software people, mutual goof. The hard ware people forget what's in the software and the software people forget what's in the hardware.

They will have a patch for it on the first Tuesday of August.... (just being sarcastically silly)

O-O

I couldn't agree with you guys more. I've seen some posts on computer forums just thrashing Microsoft over this. Huge oversight.
