Yesterday at 4:16, I placed an order at PC Alchemy.com for a tuner card so I can watch tv on my HTPC. At 4:41, they e-mailed me letting me know my order was packaged and ready to ship. At 4:56, my package shipped. Today at 2:05, my package was delivered. Right now I'm watching the Angels game on it.

Sure, I paid a few more bucks due to California taxes to get it from PC Alchemy, but when it arrives LESS than a day later, it's well worth it. Now, my DVR can record two shows, my HTPC can record one and I can still watch live TV (though I don't plan on using the HTPC as a DVR quite yet). Ahh, the wonders of modern technology.
