I had a similar experience with a comcast technician a while back.  This was
just before comcast offered their own PVRs.  I had to replace one of my
digital boxes and specifically requested one with a serial port (for channel
changing).  He brought one, but he'd never had a request like that before
and was curious why, I told him and he said something along the lines of
"You know, we're getting our own PVRs soon".  I said "this is better" and
showed him why.

He left saying he was going to look into installing MythTV himself :).
