Samsung LN55C650 55″ LCD HDTV

Guess this is the day for reviews. I wonder if the extra 5 inches will satisfy someone like Swoon, or if it’s still too small? This one is even more affordable, and an LCD, just under $1500. Looks pretty slick. With a high quality HD signal, the video performance was consistently excellent. Vivid and natural come to mind. The quality […]

How To Install Hauppauge HD-PVR with SageTV

It’s almost like Brent knew about the hot deal we posted and created this great guide on using the HD-PVR with SageTV.

Western Digital 3TB Caviar Green Drive

I have to admit, the thought of tossing 4 of these into my WHS has happened more than once…just the ability to get almost 12tb of storage space from only 4 drives is darned impressive. Although the price is now $260 per, you know the drive is quick to go down if you’re patient. On the surface, the new 3TB […]

Samsung PN50C7000 50 inch Plasma TV Review

Here’s a review on a pretty nifty 50″ plasma from Samsung, who seem to have a million TV’s on the market (have you been to Best Buy lately?). But nonetheless, they provide one for everyone’s needs, in this case a 3D TV for less than $2000 is pretty solid deal. Although, no glasses included…pretty weak. For anyone looking to jump […]

Selling Family-Friendly Edited Movies…Illegal?

So there’s a bit of sarcasm in the title, but what did this guy expect? He was editing their movies, taking out “bad” stuff, and then selling the DVD-R with zero copy protection. Whatever happened to parents just not letting their kids watch movies they weren’t old enough for? Would you really want your 8-year old to watch a non-bloody […]

Hulu Plus Launches Official, Now $7.99 month

Interesting news from Hulu. One has to believe that they simply took their $7.99 cue from Netflix–surely if people had the option of Netflix (Movies+TV) for $7.99 or Hulu Plus for $10, Netflix was going to dominate. That being said, I’m never excited to see yet another monthly fee subscription. Think they can both co-exist? I am happy to announce […]
