I’m not Jewish. I have, however, been mistaken for such on more than one occasion. In that spirit, I’ve decided to completely misinterpret one of Judaism’s holiest days, Yom Kippur (Sept. 18 this year), and atone for some misjudgments and mistakes in past writings. In other words, give you an update on things you forgot you ever read about here.
First, my DVD recorder. Way back in August 2005, I bought the cheapest DVD recorder on the market, a CyberHome DVR 1600, for a single Benjamin. It had no frills like an onscreen program guide, digital reception or anything, but it did its job: recorded television programming onto a DVD. Sure, it had its quirks — like recording for 59 minutes instead of an even hour in high quality mode, or its clock gaining a minute or two a day — but it was bleeding edge! And cheap!
It’s still tough to find a DVD recorder for under $100, but those that come close are brand names like Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic, etc. They also come with better features like HD upconversion and HDMI interfaces, and probably don’t need their clocks reset every morning. Besides, who records to DVD? Hard disk Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) are where it’s at, right? No popping discs in and out, no labeling with Sharpies and certainly no lending of recorded premium cable programming to friends.
