    http://www.computerworld.com/industr...,49569,00.html Summation is Amazon quotes web customers seemingly random prices that vary based on factors like which browser you're using to link to their site. Has lots of ramifications for DVD enthusiasts, and I am curious to hear comments.

    Battery tech in Nomad (mp3)

    Forum heading lists MP3s as valid for discussion. My question's simple. I'm pondering getting a Nomad 3 (20gig) and am wondering about the battery. It comes with an "11 hour rechargable lithium ion battery". Are the old problems with battery memory and such still around? If I get this and use...

    Road House: Everything I remembered

    So, Road House hit shelves yesterday. I've had it marked down on my list for a while now. It was in the first wave of titles I looked to get when I first entered the format, and finally it's been released. I had such a blast watching it again. Straight through, no cuts, no edits, no...

    So I was thinking about Star Wars on DVD...

    ... and it finally occurred to me why Lucas won't release them on DVD. For a while I couldn't figure it out. After all, Lucas has shown extreme willingness to charge for multiple revisions of the movies. He clearly has no problems taking multiple fees from consumers for the same basic content...

    SimCity 4

    SimCity4 Surely some of you are playing this? I know there isn't much traffic in the gaming section of HTF, but I'm hopeful. I have it, but I'm not sure if I like it yet. For one, autoroads are quite irritating. And no option to turn them off; I'd rather count squares and manually do a road...

    So I'm getting ready to ...

    ... watch my favorite two Christmas movies. I look forward to this ritual every year. I've watched these films since I was little, and they truly evoke the feel and spirit of Christmas within me. The memories are so fond, so familiar … when I was little we didn't buy VHS and didn't go to the...

    Doesn't anyone *LIKE* a movie anymore?

    I normally enjoy movie discussion on HTF, as the only bastion of intelligent discourse I've found on the Internet (for movies), but lately I'm begining to seriously question whether or not a lot of you really like movies. Because all that happens lately are these huge threads full all the ways...

    Jimmy Neutron (venting)

    I *really* want to know what smart guy at Paramount and/or the DVD distributors decided it would be oh-so-clever to use a huge long sticky strip of adhesive diagonally across the back cover of the DVD to stick a 'special Nickelodeon DVD Sampler' to the DVD case. Now I have a huge honking swath...
