    1080i???

The tv manual says the tv is 720p/1080i and I thought the component cables could only display up to 1080i. But when I go to my menu I have a 1080p option and when...

    Suggestions for budget 32" LCD

    Thanks for the input guys. I got to look at the Vizio plasma, the vizio lcd, and the Sony lcd and I have to give best picture to the plasma (believe it or not). The salesman also told me that it would excel even more than the lcd's in a darker room. I like the look of the plasma and think I will...

    Half Life 2 + 360 controller

    I've been playing shooters with a controller since Goldeneye 007 (N64). I feel more comfortable with a controller (I know, I've heard it all, mouse = superior, etc). Anyways, I looked in the options for HL2 and it didn't have an option for full use of a controller (I have a MadCatz Xbox 360...

    *Suggestions* 2.1 Speakers ~$50

    I'm looking for a decent 2.1 speaker system for my computer. I understand that ~$50 is dirt cheap and I'm certainly not going to get the best set for that money, but I can't afford much more than that. Any suggestions for *relatively nice* 2.1 speaker systems in the range of ~$50 ($60 max) is...
