  1. I also use AVG. I can get McAfee for free from my ISP, but AVG is a lot more lightweight. I also keep good back-ups, so if I do get a virus, it isn't disastrous. I can just reinstall.
  2. There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to use it. Is it a 20" widescreen, or a 20" 4x3?
  3. The hula hoop is brutal for me. Especailly when you get to the advanced hula hoop.
  4. When people talk about Americans they are usually referring to citizens of the USA. We even refer to ourselves as Americans, not United Statesians or United Statians...
  5. I don't know, I was a bit disappointed with this one. Could've been really great, but the low-end is a bit weak, and they ruined one of my favorite songs (everlong). I still think it's good, but not great.
  6. I never planned on doing anything except waiting for DVD. I will still rent/buy when it comes out.
  7. I heard about the movie before it was made, but then never heard about it again. I am actually a transplant, originally from Minneapolis, but have lived in St. Paul for about 15 years. I live by Como, off of Maryland and Rice/Dale, not too far from where you grew up. I used to live on Grand and Fairview, which is really close.
  8. You say it flopped at the box office. Was it ever even in theaters? If it was, they sure didn't advertise it much.
  9. While you're at it, it's spelled coming, not comming.
  10. So wait, the hkts-18 sub is not a powered sub? Because otherwise, the Marantz wouldn't have anything to do with it.
  11. Um, well, there's this thing. It's called the internet. You can find stuff on it and buy it. Usually cheaper than at a "real" store.
  12. Can't say I'm intimately familiar with every model of BD drive LG has ever made, so I wouldn't know the difference between the two models you mentioned, but... I have a GGW-H20L that I am very pleased with. I only use it on my computer, though, I have a standalone player in the living room. I get great picture and sound on my computer, I can play both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray and I can also burn Blu-Rays. I got it for $159 at newegg.
  13. I always think of Master and Commander as being top 10. The Matrix also comes to mind.
  14. Yeah, the whole idea of a "detective" blurting out that it was an inside job is a little odd to me. Even if he thought that's what it was, I doubt he'd say it. A detective gets to be a detective because he is a little smarter than that. I would think even a rookie uniformed officer would know better than to say that.
  15. Doesn't sound like he skimped on any of the equipment, so why not a new TV?
  16. Do you mean other than the $500 savings for buying 720p native??? Bill Yes. I mean, if you absolutely can't afford to buy a 1080p, by all means get the 720p. Otherwise, it's extremely short-sighted to not get 1080p just "because you don't need it." The $500 savings isn't going to be so great when you decide you made a mistake and end up replacing it several years earlier than if you had purchased a 1080p to begin with. I just replaced my old 720p Hitachi with a 1080p Samsung and from the moment I plugged it in, I knew I had made the right decision.
  17. They'll get a slap on the wrist. Just like Michael Vick.
  18. It would be silly to buy a 720p vs. a 1080p at this point. I've got a samsung LCD and love it.
  19. It's funny how they say this network was used for child porn in the first paragraph, then never mention it again.
  20. No worries, I have all but 2 of them anyway (Blade Runner and Bulletproof)
  21. I guess PM sent means you took him up on the offer? If not, I'll take 'em.
  22. I remember when ...And Justice For All came out, they released it on a 2 LP set, and it had a sticker that said "because it would sound like $#!T if it was on one," or something like that. Of course at the time, most of my listening was on cassette via a walkman.
  23. I think you're doing your conversion backwards. $356 AUD is about $275 American. Great Price, and right in line with what I said I would pay!!! I hope you were the one that placed the winning bid, DownUnder
  24. Thanks. That's exactly what I needed. I've got a pretty muscular build, just a lot of it is under a layer of fat right now. []
