    Best Deal on at 32"-36" Tube TV

    check dot pitches, it's a big deal... Hi check the dot pitches. Find the smallest ones you can, because the size tv you are looking at, may well have huge dots. I went with a smaller tv, because the dot pitch was so much smaller at the time I bought. I think mine is a 29 inch, but, going to...

    MSFT settlement, and the Tunny Act

    Tunny act is the basis for public comment on how the citizen feels, about the actual harm the monopoly actions have caused, I suspect. In this case, it would give them much information about other monopoly actions, by MSFT, that they might be clueless on, and, it would give them a general feel...

    The Winter Olympics... who cares?

    Do or watch I've found the downfall of watching sports is that usually takes time you could be doing them. Sometimes it can be used as a learning tool, but, this is rare. Usually it's living off someone elses accomplishments. gs

    Cool it.... Tannin has written out a rather percise discription of what he desires in a forum. Since it's a private forum, that's the perogative of the owner. Unless being leaned on with federal funding, the Bill of Rights limits the states, and the federal government, not private group...
