I can only assume that it is jealousy (and the fact that he counted down to the new telly).:-D

That's what I thought. I countered with a 5 anyway, but by the looks of it people are still voting him down. Envy and jelousy are terrible things.

I voted 5 too. This kind of voting really annoys me. This is the kind of post that we should be having in the Lounge.

He's currently at 3.4. We really need the MVPs, Supporters, etc to come out in force and vote him up.

Loved that film, except for the stereotypical English pilots in the desert. I really wish that Hollywood wouldn't do this - we don't all live in castles or picturesque little cottages in the UK and we didn't all go to Eton.

Well, we're just thrilled with the results. We were flipping through the on-screen guide and found Discovery HD, and selected it. OH - MY - GOD! The picture was amazing in terms of clarity! They have a show called "Sunrise Earth" that will blow you away. We got a DLP TV and I was worried about the"screendoor effect" (being able to see individual pixels) and the possibility of seeing color splotches due to the color wheel. Neither my wife nore I ca see either of those things, so it's all good. Someone mentioned something about ghosting on LCDs, but we saw no ghosting when we watched Independence Day. The wiring was a worry but it turned out that I did it right. The real problem is the six remote controls I have to juggle to make it all go. It seems that the remote for the TV and for the cable box can be programmed to control various other components, but neither of them do macros to do groups of things at a time. My super remote (Logitech Harmony 880) should be here Thursday.

I would seriously love that (and annoy the heck out of the wife at the same time). I once considered getting a utility belt to put remotes in but ended up thinking that would look too Tim Allen. Anyway - nice one on the telly front. Voted 5 to try to push your score up.:-D

:cool: I've been working with this for about a year now and you've mentioned the two best channels for this. If you've done much scuba diving or snorkling then this is the first time I've seen underwater footage that actually looks like you're there. Enjoy. Elaine :rose:

Yup. I'm just a reconstructed troglodyte.;P I admit it - Top Gear is my favourite program and I watch DIY shows and wonder what the people in it are thinking letting designers in.

This remote is excellent, been using one for around a year and would get the same should mine ever break. It's MUCH better than cheaper alternatives, especially the "Activities" functionality where you just push one button and the remote turns on/off whatever needs to be on/off and then choose correct inputs, etc, all form one button. You will love it - it supports pretty much every device, new and old.

I'll second that! I've got the cheaper 525 model as I wasn't sure about dropping such a large amount of cash on a remote control, but having been using it for over a year now I can say that I'd never go back to multiple remotes, it's just so easy to use and if mine ever broke I wouldn't think twice about buying the more expensive model.

Neither - very short sighted! What's the best solution? Can you get masks with lenses in? My optician said that contacts weren't good in the water because they absorb nasties and hold them against your eyes.

I'd be interested too, except I wear glasses (can't stand the thought of contacts).
