Icall cox communications (a local cable company) to ask them about adding cable with dvr service. their installation fee is waived since i'm a current customer (now you know i made this up) but has a monthly fee of $60. then i call direct tv whose monthly fee is only $40, but i have to pay a $100 installation fee. my question is, at what point (how many months) is my total cost the same for each option?
