Well I wish I had more time then, I would have pulled up beside you and said thank you.

btw, has Google done anything with it?

SageTV8 is the PVR portion of Google Fiber - but so far that only helps a few people in specific parts of Kansas City.

I had a yellow 2001 Vette back when I started SageTV...then I had to sell it because I had no money anymore and my wife (gf back then) paid the rent for years until I could actually pull a salary from SageTV. This was my present to myself for all the hard work.

Congrats Narflex! Here it is a long time after the Google buyout and there still isn't anything even close to the power and flexibility of SageTv V7.

Other than a little issue with default padding on back to back recordings *not* in the first airing of the shows SageTV V7 is still working like a champ for me.

Nice Jeff. Good for you.

Those plates would look better on a Ferrari

Nothing like a nice present to ones self for hard work. I'm adding another toy to the garage soon, 77 Trans Am, Bandit Style

T-tops, black with a gold bird on the hood?

Wish I could fit in a Corvette (I'm very tall). Of every car I've ever ridden in, it had the worst leg room. I fit better in a Miata. The Corvette's dashboard cuts right across my shins and I can't get my legs under it.

Yep!

Unfortunately finding a good original one is proving to be more difficult than I thought.

My cousin had an automatic one. All original IIRC. I got to drive it when I was 16. Pretty sweet.

Bandit style? You mean with Sally Field whining in the passenger seat?

I am a big Rush fan. Is there a Red Barchetta in the movie?

I've driven by that museum many, many times on trips but have never stopped to visit.

Great. Now I'm sad.

Saw a report on the local news last night about this. Sounds like they think many of the vehicles will be restored.

I was there last Fall (was out in KY for the Bourbon Festival). Great collection; very sad.

And is there anything The Verge won't report on now?
