I picked up the Onkyo receiver in the ad for $299. It's the new HT-RC360. $449 at the egg I believe.
Yeah, I would love to grab one of those. I currently have the HT-R540, which is great in its own regard (110/ch, 7.1, etc), but lacks HDMI. It'd definitely simplify things having the receiver do the switching.
Might scoot over there tomorrow for some cheap dogs. Here in Vegas, cheap dogs are not rare if you go to the Sports Book at certain casinos on football Sundays. Vienna beef dogs are around $.50 to $1 ea. Same dogs sell at sporting events for $4-$6.
