  1. That will go well in my TGO build.
  2. I sure don't. In case you didn't know, they now have a Gen 4.
  3. While sometimes not as bright as LED, Plasma generally offer a great picture quality, especially in a dark room. I think they handle motion better than a lot of the LED's. You can often get a bigger TV for the money, too.   Hey! Why aren't I looking more at Plasma TV's?  :biglol: 
  4. It all depends on what you want to spend.   All LED TV's are technically LCD's. Some LCD's use CCFL backlighting, while others use LED backlighting. I prefer LED.    As far as the Hz goes, you'll pay more for more. I don't think the average person really notices the difference between 60Hz, 120Hz, 240Hz, etc. while watching most programming. Again, it depends on what you want to spend. I've done a ton of TV shopping as of late, and most of the more popular brands offer adequate TV's somewhere within their lineup. I am accustom to higher-end TV's, so it takes more to make me happy, but I don't think most people are as spoiled as myself. We were looking for a 39"-42", and I was able to find a handful in the $500 price range that I could live with. Sadly, out budget wasn't quite that high. I think I found a decent deal on an RCA from Walmart.com for $299, but I won't know for sure until it's delivered on Wednesday. Everywhere else is selling the same thing for $450-ish. It's for the bedroom, so I'm sure I can live with a less than stellar picture quality, no more that I'll be watching it. When I want a good picture, I'll go up to the bonus room.  
  5. The government is making it very difficult to like them, even a little.   Some tenants in Metro public housing earn as much as $80,000 a year
  6. Not sure why I was thinking $40. Maybe I saw someone reselling them for that price.
  7. I think they were $40.
  8. PSA doesn't sell much garbage. I think the crazy prices of the not so distant past caused people to forget what normal prices were. Decent complete uppers weren't always $900.
  9. Sadly, because the elk was too friendly, the elk was killed.   Oops! Vontar beat me to it.
  10. I am also getting the error message.
  11. Party at DaveS's crib!
  12. Yeah, the other video shows the parents at the school a day or two before this video was taken.
  13. I learned a long time ago; no matter how wrong they may be, it doesn't pay to argue with a law enforcement officer.
  14. WESH-TV reported that Zimmerman was accused of domestic violence by a girlfriend in the unincorporated area of Apopka.
  15. You couldn't convince corporate America of that.
  16. That indecent is full of bad decisions. 
  17. HUH?  :stunned: Now you tell me. Feel free to PM me the details.
  18. I've never used any type of moisture control in my safe. I don't even keep anything lubed any more than I would normally. I've never had an issue. I suspect the location of a safe would determine whether or not moisture control is necessary.
  19. There are two different kind of HDMI cables; Standard and High Speed. The refresh rate of your TV has nothing to do with the cable. The maximum rate through ANY cable and into your TV is 60Hz. Your TV cannot accept anything greater. It is the job of your TV to convert the signal to its advertised rated refresh rate.  This guy explains it much better than I can. http://www.audioholics.com/audio-video-cables/120-hertz-hdmi-cables  
  20. I went to Wal-Mart and Best Buy to check out the TV's. Some of the Vizio's had a decent picture, but they were more than I wanted to spend on a bedroom TV. Like most other brands, not all Vizio's are created equal.  If the TV I ordered doesn't cut it, I'm going to wait until I can justify the higher cost of a worthwhile TV.
  21. Don't feel bad. I fell for it when I purchased my first gaming system. The dog chewed through the cables, and I was forced to buy the cheap cables. I was more upset that the Monster Cables were no better than the cheap ones, than I was at the dog for chewing them.
  22. This sounds like a typical gun auction. There is almost always far too much testosterone in the air to get a decent deal. I can't tell you how many times I've seen guys pay over retail, not including the buyers fee or background check.
  23. Here's a good read for those who still believe the Monster Cable hype. http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2010/04/the-great-cable-rip-off-for-visual-learners/
