You essentially get the same thing with these cheaper fridges. Mostly what higher end fridges will get you is more storage; there's nothing "cheap" above 30 bottles or so. As expected you'll also be paying for style, fit and finish, slide out cedar shelves, etc. I have a 30 bottle Haier from...

Bump. One last time before it goes on craigslist.

I have a Lite-On LVD-2001 upscaling-via-component player that I am no longer using. I was going to save it for a future HD bedroom set, but we're moving in a month so it's going on the market with some other extraneous gear. It is in great condition, I estimate < 100 hours on it. Only stopped...

I tried almost all of the cable box codes but no dice. Bummer. I'm still surprised that these boxes aren't supported. TedE

I recently upgraded to the RX-V650 and have a simple question for anyone running it alongside a Motorola DCT6200 HD cable box (my provider is Comcast): does anyone know if there is a remote code for this unit? I was surprised that it wasn't listed in the manual given the relative popularity of...

Chilean or Argentinian malbecs (although the former are starting to lose their "relatively unknown bargain" status as more folks discover them). You can find a number of good NZ wines (Marlborough) in that price range (maybe a tad more), Pinot Noirs and Sauv Blancs in particular. You may try...

Cripes, just trying to pass along some info. No need to get snarky (which is something you just berated other people for doing). And I would imagine that Van Ling knows just a *little* bit more about what happened behind the scenes in developing this DVD set than anybody else reading this...

FYI for anybody who'd like to get answers to their questions (or just vent ), Van Ling will be hosting an online discussion about the Trilogy DVDs on washingtonpost.com at 12:00 EST today, 9/21. You can submit questions in advance. Clicky for Van Ling at noon

I tend to disagree. There's a whole mess of people out there who drop 2-3+ grand on recording gear just to tape shows and spread them around for free. A really well done AUD recording will sound better than most SBD pulls due to the "real" audience feel. That's purely subjective though. AUD+SBD...

This isn't unusual at all. I remember seeing a show years ago about a contest for antique firearms enthusiasts (read: guys who like to dress up like Daniel Boone and run around firing old rifles). The contestants had to run around a timed course and hit targets periodically, the real challenge...

I don't know about DVD booklets/covers, but you can get CD sleeves that are designed for ring binders. Usually each sheet has space for 8 CDs (4 per side) but I also have a few that have 4 CD slots on one side and 4 slots for CD booklets on the other. Of course, this doesn't help for DVD-sized...

I use the shave gel from Bath and Body Works. I would never have considered it until it was given to me as a gift. It rocks. Nice lather, very thick. For travel I use a shaving oil from Neil's Yard in the UK I think; the label has long since peeled off. This little container (literally the size...

I have a container of dead sea monkeys sitting on my desk. Just waiting for the water to evaporate enough to bring them back to life. The perfect pet.

No, I think this has been tried with no success. Folks who missed out on the 2001 picked 2002's up in the hope that the firmware upgrade would take and allow upscaling, but to my knowledge it doesn't work. Or if it has somebody is keeping an awfully big secret ;). The new Norcent is a clone...

Haggai, In a nutshell: All the characters have the same birthday because they are all multiple personalities belonging to a single person. The twist is that all the action you are seeing onscreen is just a mental patient's imagination as psychologists try to get rid of some of his...

You should set the output to 1080i, which is what will be passed when the box detects a 1080i signal. You will also need to set the 480i override option on the cable box. Most folks don't want the box to upconvert any non-HD signals (480i standard signal) to 1080i, so they set this to 480p from...

There are a number of free utils out there for this. The best I've found is JR Directory Printer. Search for it on download.com

And get very lucky indeed. Not many of these actually made it to B&M shops as far as I can tell. Most people I know got theirs via online shops which no longer have any in stock. They are still commanding top dollar on eBay, so I wouldn't worry too much about getting rid of it if you are willing...

Hemi was a name Dodge used back in the 60's for muscle cars that had hemi-spherical heads in the combustion chamber (or some such). It actually gave a pretty significant power boost. On the same topic, does anybody know if the new Hemis *really* are Hemis? I heard rumors that they brought...

Agreed. I can have the stock earbuds in my ears for all of 5 minutes before they become super annoying and uncomfortable. Plus they sound like crap. I picked up a pair of Sony EX71s; they are in-canal earphones but are VERY comfortable. About $30. If you want the best, Shure or Etymotics are...

Brett, If Bob has any takers before he gets to me, consider yours sold ;) Thx, Ted tedeastwick (at) hotmail (dot) com

NickSo - That's why CDBaby rocks. For pretty much every band there are "Other CDs you may like" links to other bands on CDBaby. I've gotten lost for literally HOURS clicking from band to band listening to clips, backtracking when I got too far from my personal tastes and trying another path...

CAUTION: CD Baby is crack for independent music lovers. I had to slowly wean myself off of it, and I still fall off the wagon once or twice a month. The "Other music you might like" suggestions are uncannily accurate. Long term exposure will result in inflated credit card balances...

No, the 2002 is missing the feature that made the 2001 so popular: 1080i over component. It is still region free and can disable Macrovision (I'm pretty sure).

Fishbone's "It's a Wonderful Life" EP from the late 80's. The title track is a totally funked-out summary of the movie of the same name. There is also "Slick Nick, You Devil You" about a dirty, alcoholic Santa who burglarizes your house instead of giving you presents. The original Bad Santa...

I always thought that Pink was captured outside. I may be remembering incorrectly, but you can hear a car crash and a bunch of yelling outside right before the cops come in to the warehouse.
