You can get a tuner and antenna for like $15.
I think I would rather do that than have no TV for a month. 1/3/2009 1:08:55 PM |

I've had TWC for several years and never had to sign any kind of contract. And wtf kind of TV doesn't have a built in tuner? Every TV I've ever owned has had one.1/3/2009 1:44:20 PM |

lots of tv's are sold as "monitors" so that they don't have to have tuners.
also, twc has been pushing contracts a lot recently. they still offer non-contract deals, but it's more expensive than if you sign a contract. i just went through this when i moved. it's a pain. but i guess they're afraid of verizon etc taking some of their market share, so they want to make it hurt for people to change carriers. i was really tempted to switch to direct tv, but i just couldn't find a plan that would make it work the switch.

^^what he said
I have a 42" Westinghouse LCD that is advertised as a "monitor" but it is really a TV. It doesn't have a built-in tuner because not many people plug the cable directly to the TV anymore. 1/3/2009 2:24:04 PM |

Dish wanted me to pony up 200 bucks for an hd box +20/month for hd programming.
i laughed all the way to radio shack and bought an antenna and a digital box.
the hd signal was much better than what i get now with twc + i had my antenna mounted on top of a shovel stuck in the ground.
was so classy i had to wrap it in christmas lights. 1/3/2009 2:28:45 PM |

This is our last chance to make an impression OOC this year. We have played he easiest non-conference schedule in the program's history this year so we NEEDED to win one of the three decent teams we played.
