Didn't comcast buy that network? Looking forward to getting techtv when I move and get dish network. Was watching the spy show at the car dealership while I got an oil change yesterday that took an hour. They have a television with directv for people waiting on car service to watch.

Any chance any of you guys could let me know if you see some lighted fishing rods on Tech TV? I sent one off to them a while back and I guess they want to do a story from what they have told from emails. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

It was the old owner, Vulcan Ventures (Paul Allen's company) that gave him the raw deal. Apparently they'd given him some stock in the company a long time ago, and in order to raise more cash for the sale, they wanted the stock back! LaPorte said no, so they showed him the door. I'm so glad to see that they've come to their senses. Leo LaPorte is Tech-TV! The network wouldn't be the same without him.
