I don't have a DVR so I'll keep my microwave. Although . . . if I gave up my microwave, I'd lose more weight. hmmmm NAH!! :bigsmile:

Microwave!!!

DVR...don't have one anyway :happy: We wanted to get one but Directv charges way too much for High Def DVR. :grumble: It's like $300 (which you will not get back and you can't keep the equipment) and its a pretty high monthly fee too. So we decided against it. And once you have high def......you can't go back to regular picture either :laugh: So non-high def DVR is NOT an option :laugh:

Kellch, here is what you do..

Call DirecTV. Selected the "Cancel Service" option. When they ask you why you are cancelling, say "our local cable provider is providing free High Def DVRs". I promise you that you'll have your free DVR from DirecTV in a few days. Yes, there is a $10 monthy fee but you should never have to pay for the DVR itself. The key is to select the "Cancel Service" option. DO NOT SELECT THE "UPGRADE OPTION".

very good thought there!

UGH - what a horrible choice to make. I'd say give I'd give up the microwave and keep the DVR.

We live too far out in the sticks to get cable, satellite ISP is costing us a gawd-awful amount each month without even THINKING about adding TV so a DVR, while a nice 21st. kind of century gadget to dream about would not be practical for our antenna TV and the 4-5 channels we can pull in, depending on the weather. With the prohibitive cost of propane these days, we try to use it as sparingly as possible, which means the stuff like the microwave, toaster oven, electric roaster, etc. are used on a daily basis (thank God for things like the monthly averaging plan on electricity) and the conventional cookstove gets lonesome No contest...............leave my microwave alone!!!!

Well obviously I would give up my DVR since I don't have one. Plus I could never eat without my microwave oven!!!

I really do want a DVR-I need to be taping Britney Spears on Good Morning America right now!
Good thing I got my mom to. Now I just have to wait until Friday to watch it.

Oh I saw that this morning. She looks AMAZING. My goodness....perfect body. I'm so jealous. Brit's back!

I'm glad I'm not the only Britney fan on here! She is looking great these days-I'm so glad!

DVR- I don't have one to start with and don't get any channels to record anything off of.

Go to abc.com & you can watch all the old episodes of Grey's, Lost, etc... unless they just recently got rid of that option.

I don't have a DVR, but I don't have cable either. We are virtually living in a cave. :happy: Well, a cave with a laptop & high speed internet.

We FINALLY got rid of our dial up in August b/c my husband had to take an online class & it took waaaaaay too long to get his work done. Makes my life easier paying bills online & stuff, too. When I did work & had dial up, I was amazed at how fast internet could really move. LOL

Thank God for Al Gore, right, Max? :laugh:

Lucky you. We have dial up at our house. Thank Goodness for DSL at work.

Don't have a computer at home and definitely can't watch anything at work...:sad:
