To clarify: Per the plea document, he created a bogus website which offered the Limewire program. This version was hacked with malware which was installed in user's PC's when downloaded. There was no spreading of the trojan between end users or over the Gnutella network.
I think on page 28 of that thread someone posted their calibrated settings. I'm on the Plasma forum and follow the Samsung plasma threads. Good luck with your TV. 🙂
Sorry…Tivo box
The development you mention was the one I was referring to, and was announced before CES, I believe.
Many of the newer receivers have built-in HDMI switching. People want a cleaner setup, even if it's not the the most direct connection.
Go here and put in your numbers. Actually says you'll have a 38″ viewing area for standard def TV..sorry.
1. Your 47″ widescreen will display a 4×3 equivalent of a 36″ TV. So in essence, you've gone from a 32″ to a 36″ when you watch standard def TV shows.
2. If you plan to feed both video and audio from your cable box and DVD source through your receiver, your best quality picture will be using component video cables. The newer receivers have HDMI switching, which makes things very neat/tidy, but that's for your next receiver, I'm guessing.
3. The HD format war is still not over. HD-DVD got a surge last fall but Blu-ray went back up in the last month or so. Since the movie companies are still not covering both formats and there were no developments at CES, I'd say your best move is to wait. On your picture quality question, yes, both formats will be noticeably better than standard DVD.
4. Once you have the TV, go here to get user comments, calibrated settings, etc. for your TV.
Here's what most consider the definitive comparison site: AV-Comparatives. It'll save you from having to read the fanboy replies.
It was after she entered the captcha code.
Since I posted this question, someone else convinced her to reinstall Vista and it worked. Sledgehammer hits nail. :rolleyes:
