Heh heh ... good one.

There is an element of truth about this possibility. Seven (I believe)
was causing all sorts of set top boxes to crash when DTV first came
out. They were transmitting something strange in the digital stream
that prolly wasn't compliant and that caused problems. Eveidently
they rectified the problem.
