Mike, You could also get toner bands and use them while you watch TV. Toner bands are a great way to begin to strengthen your muscles and with sustained use get a mild cardio workout, at least to start with. They are also a good way to develop discipline and get into a lifestyle of daily...

I have great memories of being young, of seeing the first showings of Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Harry Potter. I guess I grew up. It's rare when movies come out that really excite me anymore. Seems like all the good writing is being done on TV now, something I never thought I'd hear...

The communal experience of a new Star Wars film, or something of that ilk, perhaps a screening of a classic I've never seen projected (My Fair Lady !), are what get me to the theater these days. And it's rare. Once or twice a year. For me it's about the special-event experience of wanting to...

Well, if that's the standard, then some of my upscaled DVDs and virtually all of my Blu-rays exceed my theatrical experiences of such films as Star Wars, Raiders, Jaws, Close Encounters, and far exceed the experiences of Lawrence of Arabia and The Godfather--in terms of clarity. So many times...

Right, and as long as they control how you are able to access the cloud, you don't have control of anything you "own" in the cloud. I still have Windows Vista on my home desktop because I am afraid at some point they will make it so everything has to be tied to the Internet to work, including...

I was late into Blu-Ray and I'll be even later into this. How clear does something have to get before the human eye and ear can't tell the difference anymore? I realize the answer to that question is beyond 4k, but how far beyond? I'm sitting here looking at The Twilight Zone on Blu-Ray, and...
