It depresses me that some of the hobbyist "leaders" are already telling us to 
line up and get a 4DTV.  Not only have they won the war, but the newbies in 
the hobby don't even know that there ever was a war.
TVRO to me is like a fragile plant, you really have to observe it and to make 
attempts at helping it along.  DSS and the small dish thing is like a weed 
that needs no help.
An expensive 4DTV won't help TVRO.  And at this point we need some strong 
stimulants.
