“Watching
a game in the crystal-clear clarity of High-Definition is the next best thing
to actually sitting in the stands,” said Paul D’Arcangelo, Vice President
for Comcast’s Metro Boston Region. “The Red Sox post-season has sent
demand for HD service into high-gear and we’re happy to meet that consumer
demand by extending hours at select service centers for those who want to pick
up an HD cable box.”
