The dual HD tuner TiVo with a 1TB extender drive is the way to go. Easily the best UI of any PVR but you need internet access to obtain the guide data. The ability to rip shows off it & re-encode is a great feature too. Cost is about $1k ($699 + $300) all up but well worth it IMO.

Steer clear of it like the plague. Feature to cost ratio is pathetic... if you must have one then I'd suggest waiting until at least V2. Be much cheaper, will be multi-tasking, have more storage, and may even have peripheral ports :eek:. Paying sticker price for this is like paying $100k for...

ADSL2 120GB plan (60+60) with iiNet for $70... only downloads counted towards quota. Very quick (ie 20MB) and very reliable. Only hook is it must be bundled with home phone, but as the cost was virtually identical to what we were paying Telstra for line rental and calls it was a no brainer.

Meh, they're all as bad as each other... find it very difficult to split the egos of Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Larry Ellision, Scott McNealy, etc over the years. I also know a couple of people who have spent time around Gates in Seattle... they reckon he is a very weird guy also. Microsoft's...

NeXt wasn't successful commercially, but technically it was a brilliant platform... amazing OO OS, but Jobs definitely bit off more than he could chew going with a proprietary hardware platform. Apple bought NeXt for the software platform & incredible development tools, and rightly so.

iBeans is the brand, but trust me when I assure you they are magical...

So you want an overpriced magazine reader with wifi that can synch with iTunes and play music and movies... and are willing to pay big $$$ for something that cannot do anything else. All of what you want... plus much, much more can be done using a Netbook, or most laptops for that matter. As I...

What an overpriced, irrelevant, gimmicky, useless piece of rubbish this is. Anyone who actually buys one of these give me a call... I've got some magic beans you may also be interested in purchasing.

Sure it wasn't the pr0n site you were on minutes earlier... ? Same thing has happened to me in the past, but in all seriousness the admin and mods could care less about the TLC site... they cannot even get this one working effectively.

Did you also buy the network package that allows you to rip recorded shows to the PC and encode them into a format of choice (ie wmv, divx, xvid, mp4, etc).

I'm not what you would call a Microsoft person, but I thought this ad was very clever. The girl who stars in it I reckon is already smarter than most of my tradesman mates... she definitely has them covered in the vocabulary stakes. VD6AklSeGQ4 If only becoming a billionaire was that...

Google and wikipedia is your friend.

They also have a BluRay version of the same machine, which doesn't need to downscale HD recordings. Also has an edit function, where you can cut out the ads before burning it to a BluRay disc. Only problem with it I gather is these burned BluRay recordings do not play on non Panasonic BluRay...

You need to ensure it has a digital tuner in it, not an analogue one. Anyone considering buying a DVR should ensure it contains at least two digital tuners... preferably HD tuners.

Why anyone would not use Firefox with AdBlock is beyond me. Its like watching TV and choosing not to skip through ad breaks. Firefox also has many other great add-ins. On the rare occasion I venture onto a site that contains functionality not Firefox supported, I generally use Chrome...

Google is your friend.

Intentionally, or is this part of a low security prison sentence? ;) What he said. Whirlpool is the one stop site for everything ISP/internet connection related.

Agree with others, uTorrent is much better. Quicker, simpler and much less a resource hog. Why do you keep everything on your C drive? Makes no sense. I only have a small C drive, which I use as temp storage before copying to external USB drives. External storage keeps getting cheaper too.

Agree. I've got a DivX compatible Pioneer DVD player with a USB port. Anything I download I simply copy to a memory stick and watch it on the LCD TV. Too easy.

iTunes is the master copy, you can sync multiple iPods to it (ie including your replacement). Extracting music from an iPod if your music library is nuked is a much more difficult proposition. I've got nearly 50GB of music, so it is backed up on multiple USB drives and stored in multiple...

Outlook and Mail are two different email applications, not sure that OL2003 pst files will load into Vista Mail. Have you checked the Microsoft knowledge base to see if this is even possible? Never used Vista, but some possible workarounds: 1) Is there an option of saving to another file...

Windows 7 is to Vista what XP was to Windows 2000. I'm still using XP and see no reason to migrate either home or office PCs until SP1 of Windows 7. Vista certainly gave me no real reason to upgrade.

SUPER (Simplified Universal Player Encoder & Renderer) by eRightSoft will do the trick nicely. Don't know about removing a watermark from the original footage, but it will convert it to MPEG-4 no problems. Brilliant piece of software this.

Piss off scam artist.

Like the minimal interface and haven't encountered very many sites where I experience problems. Like process independence per tab and the tab encapsulating UI. Omnibar, or whatever it is called, seems very obvious now that I've used it... surprised other browsers haven't designed the UI this...

As a business phone it is rubbish.

Firefox, for all the reasons listed so far. Also make sure you install the Adblock add-on, pages load far quicker without those pesky advertisement images and flash content.

Try this...

Not really, Apple want you to start watching movies and television shows on the iPod, which requires a lot more storage space.
