Matthew, FYI, what you just described is an Activity-Based
config. The antithesis of this is a Device-Based
config where you just have screens of buttons,
typically one device for each piece of equipment
and you flip back and forth, turning things on/off,
setting inputs, all manually.

Thanks. My RAV-2000 used to be that way. My girlfriend would not use it though, and I had to turn everything on for her. :-( Then, I programmed the "watch" tabs in my RAV-2000; however, I did end up liking it myself. ;-) (I actually intended to do that, however, I had trouble finding the time. The only reason that I made a full set of DirecTV icons is because I had to travel for business over the course of a week and brought my computer along.) I've consulted her (LOL) on this new method, and she likes the sound of not having to jump back and forth between the macro side of the RAV-2000 and the "Devices" side. She particularly felt that my "switch" tab was confusing.
Thanks again!
