[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 738724, member: 301161"] Get a Duo. It's does cost much more and the second tuner is so handy. Also with the Duo the hard drive fits inside; with the Solo it must be external. Don't worry about the Linux, that just lets you customise the box, but otherwise it works pretty much like any satellite receiver. Once set up the the Vu is such a pleasure to use.
