couple weeks ago put a down payment in for one of these:

i still think it's stupid they are debuting it on t-mobile. at least its hitting verizon in the spring.

Seems like a worthless rant to me, any movie that more than a few people would ever want is very likely out on dvd. DVD's should last for a very long time if they are handled properly. The real problem with getting older and smaller films onto new formats isn't the new formats its the piss poor quality and lack of availability of the original source material. Before the rise of dvd there really wasn't much financial incentive to keep source material in good quality as the studios figured they'd never make anymore money once the theater runs ended. So often times the originals were tossed in some warehouse to be lost forever. With dvd and now blu-ray and digital distribution the studios actually have financial incentive to keep their originals in good quality (or likely in some digital format backed-up in several locations). So while not much can be done about films of the past, it's a very good sign for the films of today.

happy b-day jacob

reported heart muscle problems, nothing immediately life-threatening but he is done coaching.

fyi there's also a version of tapatalk available for android. it's currently in beta you can find it in the android market by searching for tapatalk

i updated the server-side plugin this morning, it was a couple versions behind.

yeah typically shovels good for digging holes aren't so good for snow removal.

Really L3000 type bass? If so I'm probably in for a pair as well. Purk hurry up and buy a pair so you can confirm or deny this .

yeah the multi-touch thing on the Droid is weird, as 3rd party apps have it just none of the default android google stuff supports it.

I'm gonna try to keep an open mind with these and see how they actually sound. I've been surprised before.....

Agree completely, the lack of bass and odd mid-range put these on my least favorite phone list immediately.

jamato would be the one to know

did you change the boot order so the cd/dvd drive is listed before the hd?

we can hope that the whole damn thing just falls apart

yep it could still be dead w/ the platters still spinning.

could be a dying or dead hd try downloading the Ultimate Boot CD: i keep a copy here boot from it and try running some of the hd diagnostic apps

picked up my HE-5's at the post office this morning and am now giving them a first listen.

delayed till Feb. now

To me they were just very boring and lifeless sounding phones.

I use two and they are the best pillows I've ever had.

a desktop board is fine, you could use the on-board sata and software raid and/or additional raid cards. really depends on how many drives you have.

with that much data it's stupid to be spreading it over multiple single drives, at least setup a server w/ a raid 5 or 6 array. it's no replacement for real backups but will protect against drive failures.

denon 9200? didn't know such a thing existed, if you mean the exemplar 2900 it sure as hell doesn't use EL-34s.....

It's still one of the best blu-ray players around.
