I suspect the inference was that regardless it's only TV. For my perspective a 5" B&W would do me, in fact it did for quite some time. DVD, well each PC has a couple of readers/writers but there ain't one connected to the main TV. Sitting in front of a TV regardless of the program material just bores the heck out of me for the most part. Go Tom, sounds like you got a bargain there mate, enjoy it for what it's worth! ;-) -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
