Can anyone identify this car? I think it's circa 1966. Thanks!! Barry

This is my updated query in search of a laptop. I do Powerpoint presentations with borrowed library models. I'd like to get one, and I've learned that all I need is something relatively basic. Are there any brands recommended (PC, not Apple) over another? The other question--is Windows 10 a...

I have a BIC H-100 subwoofer that has a missing power cord. Where can I find one? It's a 120v 60hz 2A power cord. What's unusual about it is it's two prong rather than the more common three. Thanks for any help. Barry :blink:

I'm researching the best laptop for presentations, particularly involving video clips. I'm looking at the MacBook. Any advice? Ideally I'm looking under $1500. Thanks

I'm interested in making PowerPoint presentations with an emphasis on video clips. I know an i5 laptop is recommended, but is there anyone here who can recommend a particular model or what to look for to maximize the use of video in a PowerPoint program? Thanks!

I've spent eons using disposable cartridges and electric razors, and am now discovering the fine art of double edge shaving. Plus a renewed attention to shaving creams (not canned foam) and upscale aftershaves. No reason other than it makes me feel more polished than usual in the morning. :B)

Not sure where to place this, but I'll start here. This theme popped up in another thread, so it probably deserves a separate spot. I haven't had a particularly distinguished backstory meeting celebrities, but they've mostly been positive. Interacting with them is a whole lot different than...

For no clear reason I can't reinstall AOL 9.7. I keep being told it's already running. What then is this phantom 9.7? I can't even uninstall a supposed 9.7 because of the same reason--not to make things complicated, but in the control panel AOL 9.7 is listed in name only, with the file itself...

I'm pretty ignorant right now about portable video projectors; however, I find that projectors with DVI sound like a good feature--except that I don't fully understand the advantage over non-DVI projectors. And what is DVI-1? I'd like to have a portable for rooms with 150 people capacity...

After a gap of fifteen years I returned to riding a bicycle , mainly for exercise. I bought a Raleigh Venture 4.0, known as a "comfort bike." Riding again makes me realize just how much I missed the wonderful sensation of breezing along various pathways. I plan to take photos now, as I travel...

I am pig-ignorant on this, so bear with me. I'd like to migrate my AOL Favorites (bookmarks) to my Firefox browser, but I'm stumped how to convert the Filing Cabinet pfc files so that they can be properly part of the Firefox Browser. I hope this doesn't sound too naive or anything. Seems like...

NOW it's getting interesting--the little-seen Eddie Cantor musicals produced by Samuel Goldwyn finally have one major title on the way: KID MILLIONS (1934) from MGM/UA; online it can be had for under ten bucks. For those into early musicals this is major news. The finale of this film is in...

Given the enormous choices out there, I need to toss this question to any available experts! I frequently show DVD presentations at libraries, most of which have nice a/v setups. However, there are times I'm in a non-a/v environment, stuck with a player and a 13" TV for a large room. Not...

I'm embarrassed to ask such a basic question, but I plead total ignorance. Upon recommendation, I'm upgrading my speaker wire to Monster XP Compact. The original, very thin wire I'm replacing is color coded for positive and negative connections. With the Monster wire it's all one color (actually...

I couldn't quite get this answered from the product information, so maybe users can help. I'm interested in customizing my DVD collection (at least 300 by now)but not always in the way DVDP offers--I'm less interested in indexing by actor or director than by grouping my titles by chronology...

Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but now that I'm burning DVDs I'd like to "rescue" some laser discs that have been sitting idle ever since my player expired in 1999. But before I can transfer these lasers, I'd like to know if anyone knows a reliable place to find...

I know, by now it's probably like asking who owns a toaster, but I finally got my first cellphone after ignoring the whole thing for years. I'm still programming it, but at the moment I'm curious to know who has a cellphone and how it's proven good/bad/indifferent. I'd also like to know what you...

Anyone else have this problem? On the second disc I couldn't access the new documentary at all, plus the older documentary froze up. All the other extras worked fine on the second disc--I tried it on two different DVD players. Anyway, I'm getting an exchange at DVDEmpire. Gorgeous transfer...

After dozing a la Rip Van Winkle for 20 years re photography, I decided to jump back in with a digital setup. After much research I chose a Canon Powershot G2 and a Canon S900 printer, in conjunction with a Dell computer that I have. I'm still learning how to use the camera, and am wondering who...

I'm considering getting a Dish Network Digital Home Plan, particularly the one that offers two JVCDish 301 receivers. However, does this receiver have dual lines? Otherwise, what's the point of a multiple receiver setup? I also see that another package offers JVCPVR with a Dish301 receiver. I...

I'm not trying to sound ingenious with this question--I'm 45 (ouch), and grew up immersed with movies from the '30s through '60s on TV, and I have to remind myself that alot of younger people nowadays haven't this point of reference anymore. How many younger people actively seek out older...

I'm becoming ambivalent about the alleged advantages of Media Mail; I tried it twice so far without a problem (that is, the DVD showed up--though I don't recall the exact amount of days). However, I'm now awaiting a Media Mail item for nearly two weeks now. Has anyone had longer waits? What...

One film I just remembered I wish I had added to the Paramount poll: BRAIN CANDY (1996) starring The Kids in the Hall. Maybe I need a brain candy myself.

My brother and I are planning on getting a multi-receiver system from Dish Network soon. He wants the DishPlayer 500 receiver, and I prefer the 4722 model. Given a dual connection, can these two receivers operate off the same Dish 500 software and/or dish? Or is a second dish required?Thanks!!
