    cost conscious newbie

    Thanks for all the responses so far! It appears I have plenty of options to choose from. I may start with a dvd player since the one we are currently using is a VERY low end dvd/vcr combo that we picked up for the kids, but they decided to put it in the living room as opposed to their bedroom.

    cost conscious newbie

    Hello everyone. I am very excited to find this forum. Before I make any purchases I do research, and lots of it. This forum has provided me with more than enough! Maybe even too much.:D I am new to HT but have always wanted to have one, even if it’s not top of the line. With all the major fiscal...
