Startling! to those of us who knew that TV had a special strength in the app Tivo made for MicroSoft's Windows.

The web is full of interesting short videos - being produced by Tom, Dick, and Mary.

You may be aware that Alexa's coverage of the Tivo Community Forum website will take you directly to Amazon.com's review page for TCF. That Amazon had such pages was a surprise to me! Amazon's classifcation of the page is: Computers/Hardware/Systems/Set-Top Boxes. But that obtains for the Tivo MicroSoft Windows tie-in to a Digital Video Recording machine. The new Mac-functional Tivo Desktop for Mac version 1.9.3 is not tied to a DVR functionality. - OS
