    Mine haven't changed, colourwise. I was NTL and the menus look the same.

    There's a new version of PCGuard (or whatever) btw. I've not downloaded it yet but. I will soon. I like the idea that anti-virus software upgrades every few hours.

    using the menus, changing channel, opening any of the on demand stuff etc.
    I dunno about NTL, but telewest has always been fookin terrible for being slow.

    My mates just signed up with this Virgin mob and he got upgraded to 10mb (the cunt) whereas I'm stuck on 1mb down due to my distance from the exchange, and I'm the one who gets letters from Pipex saying I've abused their Fair Usage Policy or whateverthefuckitscalled. Time to move to a cable area...

    Anyway this Sky malarkey, I see it says Freeview is next for the chop? Doesn't really bother me, I download all my good shows, and only watch council telly fir the news. Like every time I turn the box on it's some Celebrity Fat Club pishy reality TV gayness anyway.

    Not slow for me. However I was talking to a chap today who had a similar problem and also things like interactive would freeze, so he had to re-boot the box.

    He got an engineer out and they opened the box in his street and did something with the signal and the whole shebang got faster.

    Sorry if that was too technical like.

    Yup they're taking their stuff away from Freeview.

    And also they are probly starting their own terrestrial digital channels.

    My instincts tell me that Branson is doing a good thing in resisting them. I'm not convinced Murdoch is really a big fan of competition or freedom of expression.

    I'm given to understand that Fox News may be guilty of mild political bias.
