  1. Mr THX is Mr Anti-DVD on Starwars Episode 1 DVD? · · Score: 1

    It just dosent make sence to me. He pushes the envelope with sound. The whole movie is pratically shot entirely ditigal. Now he severly degrades the sound and the video quality by only releasing it on VHS. Hell why dont they put a mono sound track on the VHS tape and convert it to black and white. Jesus, when PM was out in the theaters i drove 30 miles to a theater that was worthy of watching PM in (and i live in LA). The day I bought my DVD player was the last day I will EVER buy a VHS tape... even if that means that I wont own PM for years.. or ever. Just like I stoped buying audio tapes when I got my first Audio cd player.... mp3z etc... I stoped throwing my money away on VHS a long tine ago. Whatever his reasons are.. ultimatly it is the HARD CORE fans, the people who enjoy seeing the movie as close as possable to the way the creator intended it to be seen who loose out here

  2. Re:A good thing on Laptops In Education · · Score: 1

    I'm all for it. I gave my daughter a miniature desk and a computer for her 2nd birthday. She will be three next month. Her vocab has exploded, she plays math games that are suppost to be for grades 1-3. In the past 11 months she had suprised me numerous times with how she has picked up on how to operate the computer. ie one day she finished playing her game and shut down and turned off the computer correctly with out me ever showing her... I cannot imagine her being stuck in a classroon all day without computer access. a laptop is the logical chioce. the only real concern would be it getting stolen at school.
