I never use cue sheets, it was my understanding that they are only useful for burning.flacs back to CD, or can they also be used for playback on a computer/media player?
So what will you play when you have friends over? Because most PCs are connected to a monitor far smaller than a living-room TV, PC games are far less likely to be in a shared-view genre (e.g. Bomberman or Super Smash Bros.) or to support split-screen play than console games. So apart from Serious Sam, Lego $MOVIE, and EA Sports, you usually need a separate PC and a separate copy of the game for each player. That can get more expensive than Wii60 real quick.
Besides, aren't most PC games designed for a Microsoft operating system anyway?
Even though I have 4 controllers for the damn thing, I actually haven't had enough people over or dragged it to a Halo LAN in forever now, mostly due to Xbox Live and the logistics respectively. I am aware that Windows is practically required to play games on PCs, but at least I won't have to pay to play and I have a ton more games to choose from plus no disc swapping, if I could get it hooked up to my TV that would be an added bonus.
Yeah they all have their flaws, honestly I got sick of how Microsoft has nickel and dimed me this generation: pay to play online, $60 wireless headsets, 20 GB HDDs for $100!, full game downloads with no discount, a disc check on games that you install every time, I would be happier if it was random, etc. They have pretty much guaranteed my return to PC gaming once they release their next system and stop supporting the 360.

If you're not using an outdoor antenna you need to be, all the sets I have connected to the outdoor one are fine, but the rabbit-ears have problems with some channels.
I use myself a nice Sony programmable remote, and it works well, but even I have a bit of trouble sometimes with flipping from one mode to another, whilst managing for example overlapping sound level controls (mainly when playing DVDs that seem to flip a coin when it comes to loudness).
Ah, so that explains why when I watch movies I have to bump up the volume on some DVDs but not all of them, what the hell do I have to do to get volume consistency for talking and music?
On the DTV note I have gotten 2 households converted successfully, now I just need to buy a new VCR/DVD recorder.
I believe it is called VLC, although my hardware is currently unable to play 1080p.mkvs, as I discovered last week. On a not unrelated note anyone know how to play aforementioned files on the 360?
Where's that +i crazy mod when you need it? Really both parties know that government will only expand unless people complain, but people are too lazy and the bureaucracy too complex to do anything about.
19 Yet she increased her whoring, remembering the days of her youth, when she played the whore in the land of Egypt and lusted after her paramours there, whose genitals were like those of donkeys, and whose emissions was like that of horses.
In my version it says "whose heat was like that of horses", which makes far more sense to me. Not that I care how horny the ancient Egyptian porn-stars were.
Yep, Sheevaplug rocks. 500GB USB drive, rTorrent, and then uShare to the Xbox360. No muss, no fuss, no hassle. And, it has the capacity to do a lot more. Works out of the box, and everything is just an apt-get away.
Yes, uShare would be nice if the project was still being updated, for now it works fine but for how much longer I'm unsure.

I would do the same thing, if I could figure out how to make complete copies of the 100+ DVD disc collection I have.

But if Michigan invested in developing hovercars then no one would care what the roads looked like!
No, the poles already reversed once in theory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field, and are likely to keep reversing, though none of us will be around to find out.

Perhaps he bought it from his parents, that would explain the time-frame of the mortgage.
What are you supposed to use to open those links? 7 is confused as am I.
Am I the only person who doesn't browse by viewing pages' HTML?

Perhaps judges will become more knowledgeable about technology and we'll get less misinformed decisions, or things could stay the same.
but having thousands of annoyed customers even more pissed off because of the fine print makes little long term economic sense.
Long term economic sense, something that every U.S. automaker has since when now?
I believe that you should take a read here: http://www.templetons.com/brad/robocars/
For 27 Billion I would rather have robot cars that drive themselves.
I would direct you to a google search for anti-paranoia medications that you desperately need, but that would probably just send you over the edge.
Great, between this and the looming threat of wireless routers, http://miscellanea.wellingtongrey.net/2007/05/27/the-truth-about-wireless-devices/ we're all doomed.

Wait, you're telling me that they sell a DVR that can record OTA digital TV? I have honestly never heard of this.
The progress will be slow but I have confidence Iranians will increasingly reject the cultural neanderthals within their current government.
We haven't even been able to do this in the U.S. after 200 years, what hope does anyone have of government not telling you how to live your life?

It's not like everything is going to be reversed, this is seeing-through a device, not having it reflected.
