    Senate bill-potentially limiting number of DVD viewings

    I think I read something about this - it was a last minute thing added to an unrelated (to technology) bill. The article mentioned that the word "physical" was dropped from the final version and that it changed the whole context. It was only in the last 4-5 days that I read it.

    Wiring for a HT System

    Looks like you might have overlooked an RG6 for any OTA HDTV in. (1) for sat/cable, (1) for OTA. If I were doing this, I'd use quad RG6 (like Robert said, maybe just to make me feel better) and I'd consider dropping a conduit to your HT equipment location. Then, if you need to in the future...
