I was a little let down. I was really shocked to see some of the major players like Runco and Meridian not using either HD disc format for their main demo rooms. Instead they both used their up-converting scalers to show standard dvds, and they also used a HD cut from ABC at 720p of Pirates of...
I will have 3 full days so I should get to hit alot of it. Hey I'm thinking for a next Austin meet we should do a 1080p vs 720p projector shootout. Anyone local sportin one of the new 1080p units. I've got the Toshiba HD-DVD player but it only does 1080i and I have a PS3 for Blu-ray 1080p...
Alright its time. Who's going to the CES in Vegas Jan 8- 11. I just booked a Southwest airlines package for 2 nights stay and roundtrip airfare for $300 for the 9th-11th. Its the Plaza downtown but I tend to wonder at night so I don't care. Anyone? PS Humphrey give me a call when you get a...
I am so sorry I missed the concert Hank. My sister called me at 5 crying that her babysitter fell through for her anniversary dinner. So I did the good uncle thing and had both my nephews. So 4 kiddos was alittle much for me to take to the park. I will make a perfomacne again, I promise. Greg
Hank I can't make the Halloween night, got to spend that night with the kids. But I probably could do a poker night fri or sat. Maybe we could cook up some cables for my new equipment. Greg
Hi guys.
I finally am getting to sit down after a very crazy few days. Nils thank you very much for the phone call and the post here. My parents moved into their new house (which is in sight of where the plane crashed just happened) 2 days after my father went into the hospital. I fully intend...
Hey guys. Count me in for next week if Scotts going to be playing some tunes and dealing some cards. I am planing on hosting a movie and usic night in the coming months. I finally got my new JM Labs speakers in and the new NAD reciever is living up to its promises. Just need to reorganize the...
I had a great time and realy enjoyed donating my $10. Hey after going to Vegas last week that was nothing. I lost $20 bucks between the hotel check in and the elevator. Now if my new speakers and receiver would get in I could host an honest to goodness movie/xbox night. I even got a new bulb for...
Hey Guys. Frederick thanks for the offer but it shouldn't be to much trouble (famous last words). I'll be pulling old wire and stringing new for most of it so hopefully I can just piggy back the new wire. Scott just the man I was going to email. I went for the JM labs Chorus 707's front...
Howdy Hank Man from the second I hung up with you, the wife had us going and doing till 1am (3am tx time) everynight. My father and I hit the main area all day Sat. The Faroudja display was amazing. I also really enjoyed the Marantz demo of their soon to be released 3 chip dlp projector. Call...
Man that brings back memories. But I never had a cute French girl to help me with the rebuild, just my fat buddy that griped that I didn't swipe enough beer from my dads bar.
Have fun Sat. guys. I've got to get over one night for poker. I'm tired of taking my neighbors money on Monday nights...
I hope to finish sanding and routing them tonight. The wife and kids are up at the lake for a couple of days, so I think I will make some saw dust after work. I bought a few more clamps and that really made glueing them easy. I made a simple version of your corner vise using a couple of paving...
I've had RR since I moved to Austin 3 years ago and I love it. What also is nice is anytime you have an outage on both your digital cable and RR, you call it in as a RR outage and they send someone out that day. If you call it in as acable outage they send someone out between 8-7 3 days later...
Hey Scott I resemble that remark. Thanks for coming over guys. I have new admiration for that game. I still haven't had a chance to play that volleyball game, it just does not interest me. I sure wish Xbox would come out with a good flight sim, I really like that one you have Nils for PS2...
Hey guys If you would like to come tonight and need directions please feel free to call me at my shop today. I won't be able to check email till later today. Golf USA 402-9666 See ya later. Greg
Hey guys. If you would like to come over Sat. just drop me an email and I will email you directions. Nils: I've actualy got a 27" tv just setting on the floor of my theater since I got a new Sony Vega for X-mas, so we can hook it up. If the PS2 has Component inputs then I've got spare...
Hey guys. The X-box games I have are. RalliSport Challenge Nascar Thunder 2003 Madden 2003 Medal of Honor Frontline Splinter Cell Jedi Starfighter Serious Sam Sega GT 2002 Jet Set Radio Future Outlaw Golf I also have the steering wheel and pedals for the driving games, which...
Hey Nils I wish I could have made it tonight but I've spent all evening hooking up the wifes new ReplayTV. I also picked up a new HDTV cable box from Time-Warner. HDTV looks great on my Sony tv but I've only had the box 2 days and it refuses to tune into HBO-HD so I got a service call coming...
I know I won't be there but I vote for Brotherhood of the Wolf. That is one of my favorite films of the year. If you haven't seen it, you should. On Nils system this movie will impress. Hey Nils. I had so much fun playing PS2 on your system, I broke down and bought an X-box yesterday. Sega GT...
Hey Guys Sorry I haven't chimed in here in a while but things have been alittle crazy. Hey before everyone has their Fright Night parties please feel free to pay me a visit at opening day of the Golf USA store. I think this is going to make for a plenty scary Halloween for me. Oh well...
Thanks Nils I had a lot of fun. It was nice to see the way you have changed your room around and to see I'm not the only one who can't stop tinkering with my room. Tell your wife thanks for allowing us goofbals in to your house and you have a beautiful baby. Greg
Is there still room. I can go now. If yes I have to return a movie to Hollywood DVD so I could pick-up any PS2 game you might want to try. Let me know what title, if you can still squeeze me in. Thanks Greg
Great idea Nils. Unfortunately I can not attend this weekend. Damn and I was wanting to check out a PS2 on a dlp. So no PS2 in AC-3 through the DLP on the DIY, now I'm PO'd that I can't RSVP. :)
Well I'll see if I can make it anyway, I'll let you know.
Greg
