    So, you selling those to the highest bidder here? Or on Ebay? Or just doing a service for some of your audioholic friends? :D

    Transformers HD DVD review up

    Ok, that's good. Now do me a favor. Turn it to "Auto", reboot the player, play the first scene where the Helicopter transforms, listen to the LFE level. Then, turn it back to "off", reboot it again, then listen to the same scene again. Does it change? On my system, I went back and...

    HTPC case, parts for sale

    Did you upgrade to Leopard yet, apple guy? They even added the Blue Screen of Death, I hear. *laugh* All computers have problems... *sigh* Just the way it is. I wonder how we got to the moon? It wasn't with a modern OS on the shuttle, that's for sure! Somebody buy his computer already...

    Transformers HD DVD review up

    Did you all make sure to update to the latest firmware on your players? I am certain there must be some flags in the HD material on Transformers HD to kick the bass lower when Auto is used. It may be buggy on an older version. Like I said, I updated the firmware first, then set it to "off"...

    HTPC case, parts for sale

    MAME it! Better yet, just let me turn it into an Arcade Behemoth! It'll be happier, that way. You won't have to mess with any tv or HD anything. It'll just live out it's days playing Ms. Pac Man and Donkey Kong, or a good game of Robotron... Yeah! Check out my cab...

    HTPC case, parts for sale

    The fixer upper... You want me to fix this for you? I can, ya know. If you send it my way, I have parts I can swap in and out to determine if something is bad. It'll kind of be my third or fourth project at the moment, but It'll get done. What do you say? Ready for a working HTPC? Ok...

    Transformers HD DVD review up

    I just emailed this to Gene in case he didn't see my post, but... First, make sure you update your firmware on the HD-A2. Second, turn the Dynamic Range Control (Or whatever it is called) to "OFF". It is set to "Auto" by default, and I think that is the problem. Third, watch the movie...

    Epson's D7 Panels with C2 Fine Technology

    http://articles.projectorpeople.com/archives/2007/10/index.html I found this news item on projectorpeople.com. It shows the 3 new projectors that were just mentioned near the middle of the page...

    Trip to Elemental Designs Factory

    Yeah dude, you won't be able to. It's huge! It actually looks like you need 2 or 3 buddies to help you move it! With the performance of the single 15" driver that we heard, I think the 18" will be plenty. I have a dual 12" svs sub and that single 18" has more surface area. You'll like the...

    The Orange Box Review - Half Life 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2

    Yeah! That's the beauty of it! It is what it is! I don't have to keep dumping money into yet another graphics card. I don't have to spend hours of trouble shooting time. If the 360 or game needs an update, it just gets it when the unit or game starts up, and 30 seconds later, I am playing...

    The Orange Box Review - Half Life 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2

    Well, I sit at my computer for 8 to 10 hours a day at work. On the weekends, I'm on it for a couple more hours browsing, writing, working, etc... I have been using computers extensively since I was like 14 or something, so that puts my computer use at 19 years... Hmm, lets say I average 6...

    Epson's D7 Panels with C2 Fine Technology

    Does anyone know of a good list of projectors that are using the new D7 panel? Maybe something with current and upcoming units?

    The Orange Box Review - Half Life 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2

    There was NO deathmatch for HL2 on my 360 version of the Orange Box. It would have been pretty cool, but I do happen to own HL2 for the PC via Steam, so I can play there. I really feel like Valve didn't really consider the multiplayer capabilities of the console when they ported the games to...

    Lair PS3 Game Review

    I don't have a PS3, but was thinking about getting one. Is there a way to use the analog stick on this game instead of the built in tilt control of the sixaxis? Btw, That was from Factor 5, right? They made Turrican for the Amiga back in the day. Now that was an AWESOME game. I wonder...

    The Orange Box Review - Half Life 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2

    To clarify, I didn't say TF2 was a bad game. I just said I was angry that I wouldn't be playing it much. *grin* I really wish is supported 4 players per xbox 360. I am actually quite shocked that it doesn't. The maps are pretty small, so there shouldn't be a memory issue with having 4...

    Epson Pro Cinema 1080 UB First Look

    This was a very cool demo at the party. However, in between scenes, I did notice that there were some funny color blotches on the screen. I think this was from dust that was on the anamorphic lens. Does any one know if this kind of anamorphic lens system will be included internally to any...

    Audioholics 9th Annual State of the CE Union Show Report

    I really enjoyed the party this year. It was great to meet everyone. Thanks a ton for the great event and banquet. I even enjoyed working with the audioholics staff as a volunteer. The demo rooms were fantastic, too. I am really looking forward to next year's event! Later all...

    EA Acquires BioWare and Pandemic Studios

    Bioware didn't make Bioshock, my mistake.... Maybe I was thinking about the upcoming Mass Effect game. It looks like it will be a good game, as well. But, EA likes to strangle things, even their own employees. Well, we'll just have to wait for things to shakedown and see what happens.

    EA Acquires BioWare and Pandemic Studios

    I sure am glad they released BioShock before EA got their hands on that company. Man, that's a great game! Of course, EA will pump out an exact copy of the same game next year, call it BioShock '08, and just change the names of the characters and maybe a few textures. Have you played an...

    Gateway XHD3000 30-inch LCD Display Review

    Btw, would it be possible for you to do some lag time testing on this beast? That's one thing a lot of gamers look for. Check out: http://www.bexox.com/showdown.htm where I did some testing on three 24" monitors. I hooked up the LCDs alongside a CRT and took some high speed shots with a...
