i got analog... if I upgrade to digital, they just take the analog box back, and deploy a digital box, as the box uses the same coax cable, is that all that would be involved, would anyone know...

Yes, but they'll probably send a technician to your house to "hook it up" so they can charge you $50, at least that's the scam Time Warner pulls.

If you have Cox, they have a "self installation kit."

Basically the new cable box, a 3' piece of coax and a little booklet titled "screwing the cable into the connector for dorks" or something like that.

I don't know if I would call it an upgrade.....

Its like the telco charging for touch tone service

They are the ones benefiting from the "Upgrade"
