Herd, Scott et al,
The reason i posted this thread is obvious to you guys, the rest still don't get it.
point one: Charlie goes on his soapbox at his chat sessions and says outrageous things, makes promises he doesn't keep and says he is going to provide the moon and stars. when it doesn't happen, everyone is b*tching and crying.
Murdock says nothing, doesn't do the chat schitck , issues investor releases and press releases. does exactly what he said he'd do, and they are still b*tching and crying it isn't enough.
point two: HD is in its infancy. that is reality, don't like it, lump it.
most of the bashers want everything NOW! to hell with the 14.75 million who only want SD, take the SD channels off of them (Joe 6 pack types, you know the great unwashed) and give us HD subs all we want and do it now. you know and i know that is NOT going to happen. you are dreaming. these satcasters have until 2009 to get this done, directv has said they will have it done in 2007, two years ahead of the deadline.
point 3: once the spaceway twins light up there will be a huge improvement in the volume of hd available and the PQ,,,,IMHO. simply because it will free up space on the other birds. good lord , give them a chance! the only way they will get the investment back from these sats is , if they work right and deliver the goods.
point 4: Scott i don't hate dish, hell i make around 400 per week doing dish to directv conversions, i love going out and using all the free coax and mounts and ground blocks. hell saves me time and $$$$...LOL
point 5: Scott, you are correct...Pepsi rocks!!!!!!!!
