    Front end for television

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for some piece of software that can let me browse my networked file shares and play them back using lots of codecs, and that has an interface usable on a television with a remote controll. It doesn't matter whether or not it's Windows or Linux, but it'd be nice if it...

    Mac / PC Disk

    Hi everyone, I'm looking into getting a large external hard drive, ~1tb - 1.5tb, and was wondering what the best way to format it is for use on both a mac and a pc. HFS+ is read/write only on a mac, and I don't think windows will ever be able to use it. FAT32 is too old and slow. Is NTFS my...

    New Jack Thompson lawsuit, and my letter to him.

    Seconded. It makes you seem childish and immature; not really the image you're going for when writing a letter like that. At least this lawyer can write coherent sentences.

    Vista has hosed my computer

    Maybe I didn't explain clearly. I have a 300Gb hard disk. With vista, I had one large 300Gb partition, but in preperation for the OS change, I made a 40Gb FAT32 partition to store my data on. So all this has come about after I've deleted the ntfs partition, created a new one, and tried to...

    Vista has hosed my computer

    Hi everyone, So I've been using vista for a few weeks, but I've decided that it just wasn't worth it in terms of the resources it uses, so I wanted to go back to XP. So, I made a small fat32 partition and threw all my data on it, booted up from my XP cd, deleted the vista partition, and it...

    Help me find Mr. Right

    Hey everyone, I'm trying to find something that will pull double duty as a monitor and TV. As for as television goes, I'd like to have component and composite inputs, as well as 1080p dvi/hdmi with hdcp for whenever we decide which hd movie format wins. It doesn't need to be massive, but...

    Wireless bridge

    Hey everyone, I'm trying to set up a couple desktops in a room that can't be reached with CAT5, so I thought that rather than buying wireless cards for each, it might be better to go Wireless Bridge > Switch > Computers. I have one of those D-Link 'Gaming Routers', a DGL 4300. Would...

    Composite -> VGA

    Hey everyone, Wasn't sure which forum to post this on, but I thought that this one must be the most frequented. Anyways, I have a LCD with both DVI and VGA inputs. What I wanted to do was have the DVI input -> Computer, and the VGA input -> my PS2/xBox. Is there some kind of converter that...
