Three Related Questions:

(1) Do VHS recorders also have the "Copy-Protected - Cannot Record" problem? If not, is there any particular VHS recorder to record from the cable box that I should buy? And what kind of connections A/V must the VHS recorder that I would buy need to have?

(2) Is there a way to connect the VHS recorder to a computer so that I could play the tape back and watch it on the computer?

(3) Least likely but I'll ask anyway - is there a way to connect the cable box itself to my computer so that I could watch on my computer? Does Windows Media Center, which I have on one computer, make that better?
 
(1) Yes.
(2) (3)
I'm afraid AVForums does not allow discussion about circumventing copy protection schemes.
