I am new to the world of "upscale" universal remotes and I have a couple of questions. Apologies in advance if these have been covered elsewhere (I didn't see them).

1) Does the Harmony handle discrete codes? I have a Sony 34XBR800 (which doesn't appear to be in the DB, incidentally) and a single button is used to scroll through the video inputs. Will I be able to program it to know that "Watch DVD" is input 5, while "Watch HDTV" is input 6? I'm assuming the answer is yes, but I want to make sure.

2) Anyone know about using Virtual PC on a Mac to configure the Harmony? I've seen it mentioned that it people "have gotten it to work", but is it easy?

3) How is the build quality on these units? It seemed the early versions of the 745 had some issues. Are they solved?

Thanks!
