I often wondered what would happen to a tivo if it lost power while it was recording a show. I got to find out. I accidentally pulled the wrong plug out of the socket. Suddenly the tivo went dead. Oops!

I plugged it back in, and it went through its boot up cycle. Taking longer than normal, at least it seemed. Then once the bootup cycle was complete it started recording again. I was impressed that it realized it had been recording and started recording again.
