1. It's a fun, cooperative community. At least that's what I gather from the posts I've read in the forums so far.
2. It's a .Net 2.0 desktop app. These are my guilty pleasure.
3. I have not found a cleaner UI for program guides and PVR features. Clean and easy. My kids can't use the "But it's the last episode!" argument at bedtime. They can record it themselves on their own computers.
3. I come from a long line of programming languages and development tools. My experience stretches back to K&R C and fork() calls on SVr4 and csh and bsh and then --GASP!-- C++! I was hooked! Some may say...OBSESSED!
But my darling has become tired and gray (like the cover of my edition of Stroustroup). My eyes wander. My loyalty first fatered, and now, yes, it is born over completely to the future (for the time being at least) of increasingly productive and efficient programing languages and frameworks.
So anyway, here is me, a closet nerd, at your services. Undaunted in the least by GB-PVR's poor documentation, no apparent QA structure, and of out-of-date manuals. Tally ho!
It works, and it's simple. My 9 year old uses it like second nature. And it's only been TWO DAYS!. :-)
P.S. - Oh yeah. My first contribution was the Sleep Timer.
