Thanks.  That’s kind of what I figured.  While I’m at it, I was thinking of getting a card that can bitstream the audio, which the 4xx cards can do, right?  Do any of the ATI cards support 3D and bitstreaming as well?

Glad to hear.  Just wondering…will you take the Intel NIC out and go back to the onboard or continue using the Intel?

Before I had kids, I would watch about 5.5 hours of TV every weekday…about 4:30 to 10:00 p.m.  On weekends, it was probably about 12 hours each day.  Now I’m nowhere near either of those.

Episode 2 was pretty good.  They kept the action going, and that’s the way it should be…no time to catch your breath.  It’s funny that Meester.Rip mentioned Left 4 Dead because a lot of the time it reminds me so much of L4D.  Just the way there are so many in the city and how they seem to come at them in swarms sometimes.  The redneck guy even reminded me of Francis from L4D.

I find myself being a zombie “expert” while watching though.  “They shouldn’t be able to do that!”  But I know everyone has a different take on what zombies can or can’t do.  I find these zombies to be a little “intelligent” than what I’m used to.  For example, them using big rocks to bang on the glass doors of the store; or climbing a ladder.  Also they seem to be able to remember.  When the people were out of sight of the zombies trying to break in the store, you would think they would forget why they were trying to get in and start to go separate ways.  But then I thought it was funny that the man and woman was standing in the zombies’ sights looking at a necklace.  I was like, “At least duck down or something!”  LOL, I need to quit thinking so much while watching.

LOL, I may have to go that route.  It’s not like I’ll probably watch it on Sunday nights live any way.

I think 3 was a lot different than the first 2.  I can’t quite explain it.  Maybe it was the setting that they were in and kind of seemed to be “thrown away”.  Perhaps it disturbed me in a way, LOL.

But I did buy it on bluray today.  By the way, Disney has an $8.00 off coupon if anyone is interested.  You have to sign up for their movie rewards.  I got it from Target for $24.99 + tax, and then $8.00 off of that.  Came out to $18 and some change (Bluray, DVD, + Digital Copy).

That’s a tough one between The Goonies and Toy Story 3.  TS3 was good, but I just don’t think it was as good as 1 and 2.  Maybe because it was sadder with Andy being grown up.

My 3-year-old has gotten into watching The Goonies within the last few weeks, so I can’t even count how many times I’ve watched it in that time period.  And I still don’t get tired of it.  What’s funniest is that the other day I told him I was hungry.  He told me, “Geez, mister, you’re bldljgojudlgj than I am.”  The “bldljgojudlgj” was 3 year old jabbering cause I guess he can’t pronounce what he wants to.  I had to ask him to repeat it ’cause I couldn’t believe he remembered that little line from the movie.

Is anyone watching The Walking Dead in HD?  It pained me to have to watch it in SD.  It looked bad and low production.  My wife was watching and said, “It just doesn’t look right.  It looks ‘cheap’.”  I told her it was because it wasn’t HD.  DirecTV doesn’t have AMC in HD, so I didn’t know if cable did or not.  I can’t believe I’m going to watch a season of something in SD.  HD, you have ruined me!
