    HT Value question

    Jeff, I know what you mean. I've been working on mine for three years now and I am finally seeing the "light" at the end of the tunnel. My wife pointed out to me that there were names and numbers on the 2x4's across the walls. My name, my oldest son's name and our ages. She made fun of me...

    Looking for new laptop - What do you recommend?

    I have to agree with Mike. I would not buy anything but Dell. I have a Dell laptop which is work related, and a Compaq which I was foolish enough to purchase myself.

    Warner Brothers Title Needed on DVD

    Hello, Due to the nostalgic return to the great Cartoons of yesteryear, I and I believe many others, would love to see the release of Thundercats on DVD. Ideally, this would be a 130 episode box set, or even season box sets would be great. Thanks for your time. Todd

    DVD Recorders

    I have had the DMR-E20 for about two weeks now, and it is the BEST investment I have made to date. A good portion of the video service I run deals with transferring home movies to DVD and other formats for people. This little device works like a charm! Plus with its built in filters and...
