My God, this is the HDTV era for 8 years already! Get yourself a good HDTV and get free DVDS ( they look way better on a progressive scan HDTV than any analog 4x3 set can ) from the library. You dont know what you're missing, especailly if you can appreciate good imaging/cinematography and being a photographer already kinda proves that. jco
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of graywolf Sent: Sunday, December 17, 2006 12:16 PM To: PDML Subject: It's snowing in hell --OT Graywolf got a new pet, a television. There it was sitting in the thrift store looking all sad and abandoned, so he paid $15 + tax to spring it. It sulked at first shutting itself off after less than an hour, and graywolf thought he was going to have to turn it out on the streets. But a thorough cleaning, wasn't filthy but 25 years of dust on its circuit boards mostly came off and a night to get used to its new home, and it seems to be working nicely. Like any new pet graywolf is going to have to buy it some things, a remote, and a longer cable as the one he has is not long enough to tether it to the splitter and he has to change back and forth between it and the modem in the mean time. And later a VCR so graywolf can watch movies from the local public library. Maybe an upgrade in cable service. This could be a very expensive pet. OH? The breed? Magnavox 27in stereo console. By its tag it was born early in 1983 and cost $539.97 ($849.95 list). Does that make it an antique, or just an old TV? One would think the thing would take up a lot of space, but actually instead of taking up space it provides a table to place things like the DVD player and the Epson printer on. Anyway as the subject line implies graywolf buying a TV is a very rare occurrence, it has only happened twice in 63 years. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
