I totally agree with MrMike... I work for a telecommunications company, and while rare, we do receive calls from customers as well as police asking if we can track a laptop/computer by it's IP or MAC address. It is fairly common practice, what's with all the "oooh's and ahhhh's...oh sony has...

Hard to get a Wii? Every store in my city has Wii's available, last time I was at toys r us they had 34.

Great, another piece of hardware garbage for the history books :rolleyes:

Don't make me laugh, you're saying that a 10GB movie download will have exactly the same quality in both picture and sound as a blue ray disc? LOL

As well, if you hook up the PVR at a new location, it will need to download its boot image or startup software, which it likely won't be able to do unless your friend has the exact same service....even then, unlikely.

I can understand the argument that you physically can bring a DVR/recorder box to watch the shows at a friends house.....but how practical is this? I mean, who's going to unhook their PVR and bring it to a friends because they want to watch a show there? It's even more complicated if you have...

I'm Po' ! Gimme gimme gimme :D

The card might not be getting enough voltage through the PCI-E connector, it can cause funky problems like that.

After looking at many video cards and weighing the price/performance and most importantly, the size; I've decided to try an 8800 GTS. NCIX has a pretty good deal on an EVGA right now...should be able to squeeze it in there :)...
