i'm laughin' my butt off right now.
i've got a buddy who works in colorado (i'm in sacramento). anyway, we've become pretty good friends - we talk all the time throughout the day (both business and goofing off).
anyway...he just bought a new 32" tv and a dvd player. i was asking him what he thought of his gear and he mentioned how he has to keep changing the picture when he watches dvd's. i asked for further clarification and it turns out he's using the zoom feature to get rid of the black bars!
needless to say i almost had a cow! i immediately espoused (sp?) the virtues of OAR, blah, blah, blah. i even sent him the digital bits articles - especially the widescreen-o-rama one (my buddy's definitely not ready for the anamorphic speech yet).
i have a new mission in life! does anyone have any other suggestions on how to convert this guy?
puh-leez no dissin' the guy - he is a good hearted soul. let's keep this friendly...
