    convergence problems with JVC I'Art Pro AV-48P575 RPTV

    If it's under warranty, have a tech come out. That's what those things are there for.

    convergence problems with JVC I'Art Pro AV-48P575 RPTV

    My Panny RPTV does something simular, but it has to due with the set warming up. I will get my convergence good and then when I turn off my TV for a bit and turn it back on the convergence will seem a bit off. But about 10-15 minutes later, things clear up. I guess my set needs to warm up before...

    Having fun in the snow?

    Yep, here in the panhandle of FL (Pensacola, FL), it got down to roughly 25 the other night and last night was right below freezing. It's been cold here recently, at least for Florida. We wear long sleeves for 60 degrees though.:D

    This time tomorrow, I should be a Daddy

    Well, her birthday will not be on V-day. We have the appointment at the hospital at 12:30am tonight (they're smoking crack) so it will be tomorrow before she is born. And this is my daughter, so I would not want her to get the short end of the stick anyway and get jipped with only one gift...

    I gurantee no hurricanes this year because..

    Well I went and bought one before the 2005 hurricane season and Dennis came and hit us dead on. Ivan hit us hard in 2004 and I told myself that I would have a generator for the 2005 season. Well Dennis came and went and was bad, but our underground utility system in our neighboorhood actually...

    This time tomorrow, I should be a Daddy

    We have a scheduled induction for tonight. I am so nervous, it's unreal. It's been a long 9 months to wait for this day to finally come. We planned this pregnancy and is our first. We will hopefully welcome our little girl, Kylie Ann, into this world by tomorrow morining. I can't wait to hold...

    Onkyo HT-760 HTiB speaker issues

    Sounds like something to do with the receiver and not the speakers. I have had my Onkyo system for about 2.5 years also, without any problems.

    Nissan Murano

    A freind of mine has one and has had a few problems with it. He had to get a new transmission put in about one year of ownership. He has also had a few electrical type problems with it. But all of this has been under warranty and has not had to pay out of his pocket. But overall, he likes the...

    How many hours do you work a day?

    Man after reading all of this, I love my do nothing civil service job. For me it's 7am - 3:30pm Monday thru Friday, 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week and no more. Overtime is not even usually allowed here at my job. I love being able to go home and leave my work at work and not have to worry about...

    CRT or Rear Projection - Your opinion please?

    Yep, I have enjoyed my 53" Panny RPTV for two years now and can not find a better picture quality anywhere on the new technology televisions. I can't stand looking at a gray black. If size and depth is not an issue for you, CRT RPTV is the best bang for your buck hands down right now.

    Any car mechanics in the house?

    Replace the belt, it's not that expensive or hard to do yourself. If the noise continues, I would suspect the idle/tension pulley. From there I would move to other pulleys in the system and listen with a automotive stethascope.

    online banks - anyone use them?

    Yep, ING is what I have also. Easy, no catch system. Put money in and earn a better interest rate, simple as that. The transactions can be slow taking sometimes 2 days, but it's a savings account, not a checking.

    Budget 5.1 speaker package for girlfriend

    I agree with Bobby_K. Take a look at Onkyo box sets. They are the best HT in a box deals out there I think. I started off with their 6.1 system a few years ago and built up my system from their reciever. The reciever is very good for a box system. Here is an onkyo 7.1 system that Circuit...

    Mortgage rates..

    I would try to lock in now with a one time step down option if they offer it. That is what Wells Fargo did with me. I was able to lock my rate up to 6 months in advance with the option to step down one time if the rates went lower. The only thing was if the rates went even lower than when you...
