    Dumb question but how do I properly clean off an LCD screen?

    I've found the Unscented Parent's Choice baby wipes from Wal Mart are very similar to the "cleansing clothes" that I bougth costing far more. They are non-detergent, non-perfumed, and very sensitive. Basically it's a very mild soap and distilled water. I usually follow that with a wipe-down with...

    Upscaled dvds no better than 480p through component?

    Get it hooked up via HDMI. We had the same prob with the PS3 when I tested one. It wouldn't upconvert through component. Threw it on HDMI, made a few adjustments to the settings, and what a difference! It's no Blu Ray, but it looks darn good!

    newbie need help building first HT want to buy projector and surround sys.

    There is maybe one HT in a box I would recommend, but it's pushing around $699 I beleive. A friend of mine picked up an Onkyo system, which is actually fairly impressive for HTIB. Watch Best buy, as I've seen this same system as low as $499 on sale.

    Wow, there is some BS on that list! It should be titled "Author's top 100 films" since it's obvious that's what it was.

    Largest recommended display?

    I have a small townhouse right now, and we're looking at buying a 50" Samsung Plasma screen. Right now, we have a 32" LCD, and it does seem a bit small. I've been looking at wall-mounting a 50". The problem is we have a very small living room. We sit approximately 10 feet from the TV. Would...

    We're working on the PS3 as we speak. I was waiting for the game library to build enough to convince the wife. The BR playback is just a tasty bonus. Summer is my slow time, so we usually slow down purchases, but this fall is looking good.
