Assuming we're talking about region 1, I have the original (non-DTS) LOTM DVD, and it is the Director's Cut. I don't believe the theatrical cut has been released on DVD in region 1.
I've got a new Panasonic plasma arriving today. I've been reading a lot about burn-in over the past few weeks. The truth is that modern plasmas are FAR less susceptible to burn-in than earlier generations. You need to be careful during the first 100 hours of use (the "break-in" period). Set...
The XBR is very nice, but just a bit out of my budget range. In fact, even the HS420 is a bit over budget for me. One of the reasons that I like the Panasonic is the fact that I can get the 34" size without spending too much more than a 30".
I have been looking at 30- and 34-inch widescreen HDTVs for about a month now. My room is about 11'x14' in my new apartment, and I am going to be upgrading from a non-HD 32" JVC. I like the widescreen aspect ratio, but 30" seems tiny to me. For 34", my options seem to be: Sony KV-34HS420...
I recently saw a Sony KV-34HS510 TV available on clearance for $1280. When I went to ask about it, the salesperson told me that only open box models were available (for about $1100). The dealer is reputable (Tweeter), but still, I'm hesitant to jump on this deal because it's open box. Any...
Good to know about the copy protection! I actually put the CD back in Best Buy today because I saw that label. I may have to pick it up tomorrow afternoon.
That's correct. XP understands the difference between separate logical processors (hyperthreading) and separate physical processors. 2000 does not. In some instances, you may see a performance boost with hyperthreading enabled in 2000, but because the thread scheduler thinks that 2 CPUs are...
I bought my copy on Tuesday. The UBI.COM staffer, Joe Ybarra, appears for about 3 seconds around the 08:10 mark of the featurette. How exciting to have a rare copy :D
Great episode. I thought the first half was a little too heavily edited (in the boardroom in 12 minutes?). I was convinced that Bill and Amy were going into the final round. I guess Kwame can step it up when it counts. I thoroughly enjoyed the second half of the show. I can't believe that...
It's easy. Go to Start / Run and type "cmd". Then type "cd " to change to the directory you wish to print. Then type "dir > list.txt". This will output the directory contents to a text file, which you can then print. There are other options to the dir command; you can find them by typing "dir...
Who is your ISP? AFAIK the differences in speed between cable modem brands is negligible. ISPs may offer different speed plans for cable modem service, however (e.g. Comcast offers standard service, 3 MB down / 256 KB up, and "pro" service, 4 MB down / 384 up).
I'm not sure if they've been contributed already, but I manually created entries for each of the Indiana Jones discs tonight and submitted them. Although the boxset is already in the database, I like to have the individual discs in my DVD Profiler collection. Chad
The 9800 is an excellent card. In fact, if you have one with 2.8 ns Samsung memory, you can turn it into a 9800 Pro. Read up on the Rage3D forums to find out how to do it.
I just picked up mine from Gamestop during my lunch break. There were two left when I got to the store. The price was $54.99 instead of $49.99 (mall markup I suppose :angry:), but I couldn't resist :D.
When is the actual release date? EBGames lists today (6/23), but I didn't see it listed at all in Best Buy's or Circuit City's flyers this week. Is it safe to assume that there are no deals on the GBP this week?
I'm not clear on why Nero won't work for this. Is there a reason you are ripping each track and then burning? I use Nero to do a CD-to-CD copy (rips CD image to HD then burns), and it works great. I pop in the CD and start a CD copy. Nero reads the disc information and lets me select the CD from...
Internet hosting companies are a dime a dozen, and I imagine that it's very difficult for a start-up to compete with larger businesses. That said, the key to entrepreneurship is finding a need in the marketplace and addressing that need. Instead of asking, "How can I get my business off the...
John, you've made it abundantly clear in your history of HTF posts that you're not a Microsoft fan. However, the original poster was only asking for a comparison between Office 2002 and 2003, not for a flurry of anti-Microsoft rhetoric. I was simply trying to answer the man's questions. As...
As far as I know, 2003 will feature some fairly extensive changes to Outlook as well as the ability to save Office documents in XML format. Outlook will feature some built in junk mail handling and a revamped interface. Each of the Office apps will be able to save documents in XML, but this is...
You've probably set your video card to a setting that is incompatible with your monitor in Windows. Before your Windows loading screen appears, hold F8. You should get a menu of options, one of which is to boot into "Safe mode." From there, adjust your video settings back to a "monitor-safe"...
