[hide]Description
I bought a couple Tivos at a flea market the other day. I thought they were worth $8 a piece, but really they aren't. So I am going to get my $8 out of them some way.
What I Have
- 1 Series 2
- 1 Series 2.5
- Both are say 80hr record time
- All Wires
Ideas for use
- I am thinking maybe I can use them as a media center storage device.
- Save hard drive, and put Thermite to them.
