Ok, i just got off the phone with Time Warner for a third time, and here's
what I was told. They told me they don't provide any enabled firewire ports
due to copyright laws. I thought they had to provide one if it was requested
due to some other law? Does anyone on here have Time Warner and successfully
gotten a firewire HD box from them? If so, how did you get them to give it
to you? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as these morons are really
starting to get to me. Thanks in advance.
