2001: A Space Odyssey- the best science fiction of all time finally has justice done to it. It looks and sounds as nice as when I saw it in Cinerama. 8 1/2- The inclusion of interviews, critiques and trailers to this great package had the same affect on me as when I first saw it . It was and is...

Any debate as to the placement of 2001 on the list should automatically make the writer questionable. We should have to present our bona fides for this topic. So here are mine: Virtually every Saturday from age 10 through 16 at the Paramont Theater in Atlanta (yea, so i had no life). That...

The , hopefully, remote possibility of such a thing happening is nightmarish. It also reaffirms my opinion of the intelligence of the film industry in general and the ignorance of the new power brokers ( those raised exclusively on TV). Even though I was raised in the infancy of television, in...

I feel like an idiot asking a question with what is probably a very obvious answer but.......... I have a new Tosh 40H80 and a brand new AVIA disc. Where do I start? I have the specifics for getting into service mode but where do I go from there? I really need to run a 56 pt convergence due to...

Being that in the past year we have had my top two hits... The Aussie version of Mad Max and Rififi I am pretty happy. Now if Branaugh's Hamlet and SOB would mysteriously appear it would be complete (along with all of the other juicy titles already mentioned).

I could probably find the info on the Spot but I just want to clear this up as soon as possible. I have a new 40H80 and I have a slight bowing of the top horizontal line. All other perimteres seem to be OK. I will be doing Avia in a few days (as soon as the disc arrives) but is there a simple...

Thanks for the speedy replies. That was my thinking but after years of direct view I was a bit antsy. I will check out the spot for tuning suggestions. Hopefully I will be able to provide the same help for the next tyro who comes along. The move to Wide screen is gonna be big I predict. I...

I am really close to buying this unit and would like some user comments. This is my first such TV and although I am excited I want to be sure that this will be the right one ( like us all:) Would appreciate any and all comments...........

Being closer to taking the plunge, I am tending to lean toward the 42 as opposed to the 50" as a size consideration. However in reading users comments about the differences between the H and HX Toshibas, especially the non-glare screen, I am compelled to ask if a 42HX81 is on the way. Glare is a...

Phil, Thanks for the information. The tuning is a concern as My wife, like many spouces, will drive me crazy the more time I spend dinking with the color, etc. But it sounds fairly easy once you get it close. I have around 4 months before jumping in to the wide end of the pool so I can make...

I am getting close to a new TV. It is basically between the 36XBR450 and , probably, the new Toshiba 43" RPTV. At Sears, yea I know, the salesman was adament that a direct view TV is superior on it's face in sharpness. My concerns are the overall image quality (contrast, sharpness...
