Re: Monitor Black Outs!
I had a problem with a CRT once that did that, and it turned out to be a heat issue, stuck a fan on the side of it (house fan) and it was fine so I just bought another monitor.

Re: Right Angle Power Cable Needed
Oh damn, that's a first, most phillips were using standard A/C.
As stupid as this sounds, hit up the pawn shops because a lot of little devices like boom box, etc use that cable and you'll find right angle ones for certain models.

Re: Better Store?
I bought one song off of Zune, and one off of iTunes - I can't really decide which way I want to go.

Re: Hardware Purchasing Poll
I've always been a jew when it comes to buying tech parts (I mean look at my signature).

Gateway GT5014 (Mild Rig)

Re: The Crisis of Credit Explained
Awesome,
Now I don't have to explain to the noobs around my city anymore, I can just show them a video.

Re: Strange mouse disconnects/reconnects
Try going into the device manager, delete the mouse and make sure and check the "DELETE DRIVER" - have new ones on deck though.

Yeah, the TV I've got it on now is for my bedroom and it fits perfectly inside my enertainment center (too perfect)...the living room will be getting a 42" LCD and I'll be happy.

Re: help with copying the Dark Knight and Wall-e DVDs on Vista
Why dont you just use the Digital Copy Code and CD that comes in the case with it? At least my Bluray version of Dark Knight let me copy it to a computer, so now I have the BluRay, Portable (on my PC), and PC Version (on my PC).
