    refurbished HDA1

    I purchased a refurbed unit off of Ebay for around that same back in November. Haven't had a single problem with it! I figured for that price it was worth the risk. I have been extremely happy with it.

    Disney Treasures - Info

    What would a good price be for all 7 titles? There's an auction on Ebay that's currently going for about $300 after shipping. That's around $43 a title. Wouldn't it be cheaper to try buying them individually at local stores and on Ebay as individuals.

    BMWFims - Beat the Devil

    I've watched a bunch of them also. I think the best ones so far are 'Beat the Devil' and 'Star' (the one with Guy Ritchie and Madonna). I'm a huge fan of Don Cheadle, but the one he was in (Ticker) didn't do much for me. don't answer it.... that guy scares me.....

    Question re: Billy Joel / Elton John 2002 tour

    I just saw them in DC a few weeks ago. They didn't play Come together or Hard Days Night, but they did play a few songs in honor of George Harrison. 'Here Comes the Sun' was one of them and I can't remember what else. I saw both the 1/13 and the 1/20 shows and they did do some different songs...

    Need help from a networking guru......

    Thanks for all the replies. Here's the latest. I tried making sure everything was turned off before firing up the router and then turning on the PCs. It still acted the same way. I went ahead and mapped on of the drives from the win 2k machine to the win 98 machine and that seems to have...

    Need help from a networking guru......

    Thanks for the reply. I did already look into that thought. When I have to power-cycle the router, I usually power cycle the router, wait for the self-test to complete and the WAN connection to become active, then I shut down the PCs wait a minute or so then boot them back up. I still get...

    Need help from a networking guru......

    Are WEGAS Finally, And Sensibly, Available In Black?

    I've got the KV-27FV17 and from across the room, the thing does look black. Up close or with the room lights in 'torch' mode, it has a 'cool' dark grey look to it.

    UPS (Battery Backup) and TV question

    Are there any issues or concerns plugging a TV into a UPS? I'm not talking about the entire theater setup. Just the TV and maybe the DirecTV box. It would either be a 50inch Toshiba or a 27inch Wega. Thanks, Byron

    Create VCDs from Tivo Output?

    Jasen I'm actually using a combo box (DirecTivo) so it doesn't give me an option as to what quality to use. I think it always records at the highest quality. Byron

    Create VCDs from Tivo Output?

    Jake, I've done it a couple times but the video comes out very pixelated. I go from the Tivo into an ATI TV Wonder card on my PC. Then use a combination of Xing Mpeg Encoder and Adaptec Easy CD Creator to make the VideoCD. It works and the audio sounds very good. The video on the other hand...
