That's a load of bullcrap. Like has aready been said, those boxes are not of the best quality anyway. And, I've seen some STB's that actually ran hotter than the TV it was sitting on.

I have not had any personal experience with the new digital cable boxes and don't plan to as long as analog cable service is available. Don't know how much longer that will last as they just dropped 4 channels from the analog package and will probably be dropping more until it gets to the point where only local channels + 2 or 3 others will be on analog (Ch. 2-13).
