    Buying a used HDTV on Craigslist?

    Call me a curmudgeon, but electronics are things that I like to buy new or recertified from the manufacturer, not second-hand from an individual. You should calculate mileage/gas into the equation, especially since you get free shipping deals all the time on the internet.

    GMail questions (labels)

    labels work well enough like folders for me. it's better too, because since all the message can be lumped together, i don't have to remember which folder its in to quickly search in all labels...why pop it down though? i let google deal with the harddrive space so i don't have to.

    Convert audio clips to text

    As trexler suggests, a transcriber would the best and most accurate option. You might try using Jott ( http://jott.com/default.aspx ) It transcribes voice to text. You call in on a 1-800 number and say that you want to send a Jott to yourself (typically sent to an email address you provide...

    Best FREE DVD player software?

    I personally like VLC ( http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ ). It's free, it's versatile. Plays pretty much any format you can think of.

    Is my setup wierd?

    Studio quality monitors should deliver good, clean, crisp sound reproduction with tight bass. What's weird about wanting that? My assumption here is that they are also very well constructed. As for your question about damage, I would think that only playing music for a prolonged period of time...
