Nice write up. If all else fails, tennis ball with a string it is! I'd love to make a more in depth solution, but it won't make a difference to my parents, so let's see how this GE thingie stacks up!

Anyone use any ultrasonic parking aids? My parents just added cabinets to the garage and I'm looking for an elegant solution rather than gluing a piece of plastic to the floor. Picked up this thing at my local fry's for $15. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000YCFEK I like this one, but I...

TXFlatLander, Thanks for the info. So far no issues with prime95, memtest86 or 3D mark. Hopefully its all good now.

Wow, thanks for all the feedback. Memtest86 is still running from this morning. I'll run prime95 overnight. -Bios settings are fine - on latest bios -All fans function -Purchased a UPS when I bought the power supply -Glad to know this power supply is adequate - time to mail that rebate! -Not...

Hi All, Its been a while since I have stopped by. I know some of you here. Anyways, we had a brown out in socal last week. My computers were fine since I was on a battery backup, however my parents computer did not fare too well. It wouldn't start up the next day. I replaced the power supply...

Wow, I never knew such things existed! I'm definitly putting that on my 1st gen mini! :D

I'd get an electrical hook up and connect the positive end to the copper pipes. Sure no one wants to touch them now :(

I'd go with a compaq v1000 with an turion or core duo processor. Its small, light, has a good screen, and doesn't cost too much. If you are looking for more higher end, I would go with an Asus laptop. I chose to go MSI because they are compatible with amd cpu's. I recently built myself an...

Ah, ok. I get it. For some reason, I misread the price of the assembled unit and thought those were $1399 - it was actually 5 for $1399. $260 isn't bad. I'm definitly eyeballing these things once I get a place of my own.

Sorry for high jacking. Someone please prove me wrong because right now I've got an evil grin from ear to ear: Is this: http://store.lightorama.com/16chkitstwih1.html really this: http://store.lightorama.com/locolico.html minus the box and power wires?

Cool, I jumped in on this deal. Is the beyond media software and remote worth giving up the $50 for? fyi, on my box it says free upgrade to beyond tv 4. ;)

here's a pic of specs of the vcr: There are specs all over the place: http://www.videomaker.com/scripts/article.cfm?id=2369 - scroll 3/4 way down http://www.samysdv.com/son-svo2000.htm I should have read some reviews before purchasing the pinnacle movieboxdv. I only read reviews on the...

This is something I do not want to have to repeat in the future. Paying an extra $100 for professional grade equipment is worth it in my book, especially considering some of these tapes have not been viewed for YEARS. Svideo has less loss over composite while transfer since it isn't combining...

Pics and specs soon B) Still waiting for it to arrive. Its once sexy unit. Unfortunatly, now I think I may need to buy a time based corrector (TBC). I have this obsession with doing things professionally and only once... lol. Good news is that I found a way to crack my tivo's encryption...

Just picked up a sony svo-2000. We'll see how good this thing really is when it gets here :D
