I realise that the installers dont give you an option on what box you
end up with, but curious what is regarded as the best / worst boxes
that $ky use.

I am fairly certain, that the Amstrad appears to be the most widely
distributed (?)

I think that if you get the free installation/free minidish/free digibox
offer then you can have any digibox you want as long as it's an Amstrad
:-o)

We have a Panasonic and an Amstrad, there doesn't seem to be much in it,
but the Panasonic does seem to be a little quicker (Plus it looks nicer).

The Sony box has Optical output, which is rather nice. Don't know if
they're still made though, my sister had one years ago...

Thats what I thought...however, not what I ended up with;-)

Is the Thompson regarded as a good one?

Some Grundig digiboxes (now badged Thomson) have a "feature" that stops the
TV-Link device from working.
