  1. If I was a Billionaire I would still have a place for a pair of Heresy's in my home.
  2. I'm thinking of buying a mac also and was just about to post a question whether I should or not. I would love to try the operating system, but man for the the scratch they charge you can build a pc that would destroy it. Still it wouldn't have that slick OS I want to try so badly. Well their advertisements make it sound pretty sweet I have yet to personally try one. I spent some time today reading up on Mac 101.
  3. Led Zeppelin- Presence Format: CD Genre: Classic Rock This is something I already own, and I just recently started to enjoy alot lately. It's production is very nice, and after listening to much of the riffs and licks I noticed some familiar sounds from earlier recordings. Sort of a culmination of the years which I think is great.

    GrindHouse

    I'd watch it just to check out Rose in a film like this. I may have to wait for it to hit dvd though.
  5. Porcupine Tree- Fear of a Blank Planet ( thanks to Scooterdog for the heads up) CD Progressive Rock/metal/jazz/blues/folk/ orgasmic atmospheric phychadelic cortex stimuli
  6. EXCELLENT SCOOTER! I just ordered it, and the clips are awesome.
  7. Justin your apple tv sounds realy cool. I like your setup Heresy's are great speakers. That's what i'm running now. Man if I had high speed internet, AND you could browse the net I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat! Can you browse the net? How about checking out Flash vid. like You Tube?
  8. Daddy Dee i'm glad you posted this about Win I've been wondering if he's been alright for the longest time. Tell him Wheelman says hello, and hang in there.
  9. Megaohm thanks for the info I was checking out the Cisco. What else would you need? I dont live anywhere near a "hotspot". Do companys offer a wifi interent service for an individual consumer? Or is this mainly for routing? Im just trying to find something that's faster than dial up. I don't have Dsl, or cable in my rural area.

    CRANK

    This movie is a pretty darn good action flick. I'm not sure I seen a movie with more action. There are some hilarious parts as well. Ridiculous? You bet! It maybe a bit to bloody and perverse for some viewers.
  11. Probally a real sweet sounding amp by the year and how happy you are. I would be very hesitant to spend anymore money on an amp if you got a nice sweet sounding vintage one. If two channel music is your goal without breaking the bank. If you do try other Two channel amps/pre setups out don't sell the Marantz just yet. Welcome and congrats. You may never best the bliss you first hear with a good system. I don't why that is it's like that with many things in life.
  12. It's free and always will be. I use my tuner on my AV reciever more than any other feature especially while i'm on the net. Never listen to talk radio just kick arse classic rock.
  13. Thanks Scooter I will have to check it out. Not sure my internet connection can handle it though. Hidef also has hidden radio stations within radio stations. Bill
  14. It rocks! That's all I got to say. Seriously though i've been wanting a cool racing game that was very arcade like for my pc, and I couldn't ask for a cooler game. It includes the orginal arcade version also. Keyboard play isn't as hard as I thought it would be, but I set up my gamepad. Now I can really chill.
  15. Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris Real live Roadrunning Cd, but you get the show on dvd also. An incredible bonus, because the dvd has GREAT sound quality. It's country, blues, bluegrass, for the most part, it's got Mark (!) on it so I bought it. It's growing on me I keep watching the dvd that 59' Paul has some serious tone, or is it a 58'? Buy it and let me know. Highlights for me are I dug up a diamond ( with Emmy) Song for Sonny Liston ( great ) Romeo and Juliet Red Dirt Girl ( all Emmy) Many more as I watch it. It is really growing on me. I anticipated something different, but gave it another listen. I'm glad I did.
  16. Anyone see any AV receivers on the market yet with hidef tuners? It's free, and it is the future so I'm wondering why I haven't seen any new receivers with it lately. I've got some hick town stations blasting it out already. I've seen little table top radios with it, but notta receiver. Which would probally be worth waiting for if you get descent reception. I guess it's easier to pull in the signal also. I'm not sure though I like my fm analog sound alot though. While there at throw in dolby true hd sound, and dts hd decoders for good measure. I think alot of manufacturers missed the boat by introducing their new models without these features for the year 2007. I think the ones that do will have the upper advantage out the gate.
  17. Excellent catch Todd I was thinking that, but forgot all about it thinking about other things. It's the most important thing to consider for sure. Hope it's not to late. Bill
  18. MARK KNOPFLER & EMMYLOU HARRIS REAL LIVE ROADRUNNING
  19. The strap is probally fine i'm guessing? Maybe that little connection to the strap to the wiimote is what's breaking.
  20. Hi Michael long time no talk. You work for klipsch now? Cool
  21. No but I was thinking about getting it. I'm not so sure now after hearing what you said. A few questions. Is it alot faster than dialup? Is streaming video instant no waiting? Do you have a satellite provider for television, and if so did you need a seperate dish for the internet? I went to my brother inlaws and his cable connection almost seemed slower than my accelerated dialup for web browsing, but when I when to download anything is was instant. I couldn't believe it, but I wasn't blown away by the web pages loading.
  22. There are three packages and the least expensive is 50. I guess Dish network did hook up with wild blue. So it brought the equipment fees down a hundred bucks to 200 dollars for Dish users. The thing is the speed 512kbps/128kbps I have no idea if this will be fast enough for 50 bucks a month. I hoping to beable to online game when test drive unlimited comes out. What do you think of that speed? Isn't dsl faster for 15 bucks? I don't get that, but who know's. I have to sign a year contract for the satellite. I may beable to get dls by then. I think it's best to wait for the new year though. They may have a new deal and it's only a month away anyways.
  23. That's not good at all. Dang you got me thinking now. I guess if I stick to just shooters I maybe safe. I could see one going through a window easily.
