On that same note, these damn "protections", and automatic updates
that change things, are getting increasingly aggravating.

The computer's not so bad most the time. USUALLY you don't lose
functionality as a result of an upgrade and if you know what you're doing
you can remove one or another.

Our Satellite system has to "download program guide" updates twice a
week, but it does more than that. They added the TV Guide logo some time
ago to their channel guide, and guess when that happpened... Haven't
lost reciever functionality yet, but that's because it's just the minimum
needed to work easily.
