EDIT: Beginning this week, I will start noting the Warner Brothers titles which will have the 30-day rental window imposed on them. I will place ** next to the title. I can’t remember a week with fewer overall selections of Blu-ray titles, but there are always at least one winner. I did have the unfortunate luck of watching "Housebroken" with […]
Read moreI’ve personally used this PSU from FSP, but this has been around for a long time–it is only 400 watts. But, ever since Antec got out of the Phantom-silent PSU’s, this is one of the last remaining players in the game. And it is completely silent, as unlike the Phantom this one does not even have an emergency fan…so plan […]

Here’s a review of the successor to Panasonic’s X10 Plasma TV, the X20, which seems to do a great job for its price range. Not perfect, but I don’t think I would mind having this in my living room.

Pretty interesting statistic. I’m not at all surprised though given the unlimited usage model. Pay attention and you’ll see DVD rentals are still rising, it just so happens that so too is streaming. Which if you figure you have to watch something while you wait for new movies, sorta makes sense. FeedFlix We’ve posted in the past about Netflix’s […]
Read moreWell, if you have still been holding out to view Netflix movies on your Wii (anyone…anyone?), then you’re in luck! Looks like Netflix has finally started shipping the disc to allow you to do what you’ve been able to do on PS3’s, XBox’s and your HTPC for a long time now.
Read moreOK, back on regular schedule for this week’s podcasts! Man and look there’s still plenty to enjoy! The Media Center Show #249 – By Remote Returning to the show this week is Windows Media Center MVP Niall Ginsbour talking about his remote scheduling application called “By Remote”.
