TiVo will be forced to come to terms with an increasingly competitive market flooded by free DVRs from video service providers.

-? Georgia College & State University, Milledgeville, GA, has selected S&C Electric Company's PureWave UPS? System to maintain consistent power quality to the computer room supporting their information technology activities.
