  2. Yep that's what our 60" is. The SXRD technology is really great and the picture is stunning when you get it calibrated. I'm not too worried about replacing it as that will (hopefully) be a few years down the line and video technology seems to be going at a pretty good clip now. Now for the obligatory "lasers" image:
  3. We have a 60" Sony rear projection Monitor in our family room. The viewing distance is about 12'. When we first got it the screen seemed huge as it replaced a 27" CRT. We now both agree that we could easily go bigger, especially when watching sports. Unless you really think you need the Plasmas black levels and (maybe) faster refresh rates I would go with the LCD's. The technology increases on LCD's has made the gap really small between LCD and plasma.

  6. Well I guess that makes up my mind on the matter. When is the next Florida meet?

    Reading practice much comprehension? You truly are a moron. The it goes both ways was not an indictment of both sides (but I guess you were too lazy to look up the word anecdotal) but merely the reality that you can find individual incidents to bolster any side of any case. My point was that neither your example nor mine represented an overwhelming pattern or trend. Sorry Nate, but that is as nice as I can be when someone implies that I am "less than a good man". Especially when it is implied (i.e. have the balls to come right out and say what you mean) and when it is based upon their complete lack of reading comprehension. I guess eight years of not valuing education in this country has taken its toll.
  8. I'm glad it looks O.K. for you Ken. Luis please keep us updated and let us know if there is anything we can do besides the moral support.

    Goes both ways. A local teacher here was put on academic leave pending an investigation of verbally abusing students that made positive comments about Obama or negative comments about McCain. Caused quite an uproar at the local school board meeting. Neverthesless, both are merely anecdotal.

    That is a valid point. School aged children are capable of making up their own minds and forming a coherent thought. Republican vice-presidential candidates (and current POTUS) are not. Thanks for reminding me.
  11. We were in Miami for the annual wildlife conference at the downtown Hyatt. Between meeting committments and our son there wasn't really any time for anything else. Besides it seems as if you were jet-setting around yourself quite a bit the last few days. I always get annoyed when my grown-up life intrudes on my hobbies .
  12. $259 Shipped - 10% eBay Coupon - 25% Live Cashback = $168.35. A no brainer for the garage/workshop.
  13. We all woke up at 5:00 AM, went to the Miami airport, waited around for 4 hours for the plane, flew back to Indy, drove to Charleston. The Miami airport has now taken over first place for my least favorite airport.
  14. Happy Birthday!!
  15. I used to have two pairs of HE-60's. One had original drivers and one with new (approx 3 yrs. ago) drivers. With the same source and amp they sounded alike to me. But maybe my ears are not as discerning as some others. Also it was not exactly clear to me that Sennheiser did the replacements. But as I said, I did not read it that closely.
  16. I kept having dropouts and lock-ups with the router built into my DSL modem. Turned the wireless off and replaced it with a separate wireless N modem. For 3 months, no dropouts and 1 lockup (which turned out to be provider caused).
  17. Your wish is my command: Chiunifi 2 Impressions
  18. There is a bit of discussion on the impressions thread on HF. I didn't read it too closely but it sounded like Ray had pretty tight control over the amp.

    Well Ingwe already pointed it out. Surrounding yourself with people of varying opinion is only worth something if they are allowed to freely express those opinions and if the opinions are seriously considered. If you need examples look at the EPA, FDA, and FWS reports that had scientific evidence removed because it didn't support the political agenda. The pressure came directly from the top filtered through the respective cabinet posts.

    Well at least 4 of us.

    Studying history is not the same as experiencing events. Both can provide a learning experience but only one, if used to its fullest, lets you gain real understanding.
  23. Umm, I think so but I'm not totally sure as I was on hiatus in Baltimore that weekend. Oh, and thanks for fixing that.
  24. @Nate: AFAIK Billy was being Billy and so information was totally lacking. If not for Ryan, I think the list would be even smaller. Pretty much a huge disappointment for me. @Aura: The reason I'm not going is I have to fly out to a meeting on Sunday and my presentation is not done started yet @me:
