I don't waste time or money on cable. Especially Time Warner Cable. I have an Mac Mini connected to my second HDMI port via a DVI-HDMI cable. I have a high speed ASDL connection connected directly into the Mac Mini. This allows me to watch any OTA station that have a web stream or watch any cable show for example The Closer or the Daily Show. I don't need a DVR since I can wait for the show to get posted online. Cable all it does is compress the HD feed. Even if I just used my QAM tuner. BTW the first HDMI port is where my Sony Blu Ray player is connected.
