  1. That's what I thought.
  2. No blue flags needed, lapped cars were moving over. Unless there was an incident I missed?
  3. Not his fault the others are rubbish
  4. They say they might patch it back in, but unless everyone kicks up a stink (which they won't) I don't see them making it a priority. A handful of interweb people morning is peanuts compared to the millions of gamers who are going to buy it regardless.
  5. Glad it's sturdy
  6. In related news, Margaret Thatcher is no longer the PM and Michael Jackson's Bad album is doing quite well
  7. See, I'd class that as a major one, but I guess it depends on the testers' view point.
  8. Definite fail as it is, though.
  9. And the rear. And the skirts. And the wing. And the wheels. Just kidding. I like the wheels.
  10. Why would you need more? All inputs go into the AVR, only the one cable to the TV I bought a new TV today. Logik 24" LCD thing for the bedroom. 2 HDMI (I need two ironically, given what I said above, for Sky and ATV), 1080p, DVR via USB, £140. Picture is as good as the £230 Samsung they had next to it on display, and the sound is much better although still sh*t. For a bedroom tellehbocks, it's perfect.
  11. My Dad buys loads of Apple devices when he goes to the US, including iPads and AppleTVs. All work fine
  12. I love Costco They had the Sammy 75" LED in there the other week, was sooooooo tempted but the missus would've killed me!
  13. Oh absolutely, why else do you think I drive a Porsche?! Also, at least the Xbone has DLNA abilities. PS4 does not, which seems a massive backwards step. Streaming media should be a given on new tech.
  14. Pull a plug, what does the chamber look like?
  15. Well, as long as you're happy. Personally I can't stand their compressed nature and prefer to hear a fuller dynamic range across my speakers, but each to their own.
  16. So have you replaced the battery yet?
  17. You don't have to say it's for your Dad! Sign up, new poster, make a few random comments, then drop in that amongst other things you'd like to replace the roof Asked on PH?
  18. Tell me more about this strange episode with lights... There's no switch as you describe on the Zed, so I'd expect something else. What exactly happened?
  19. I still want one
  20. I agree, I wouldn't buy a TV for 3D, but if the right TV just happened to have 3D (which most do now) then I wouldn't discount it.
  21. Go wash your mouth out! Don't fall for the marketing.
  22. HD TVs are only just about mainstream now, so 4K is at least 8 years away IMHO.
  23. The correct answer here is to go into a big electronic superstore, take a BD with you with good dynamic range (I use Independence Day), and try a few TVs out. Don't leave them set on the horrible high contrast, put them on their natural or movie modes, and see what you think for yourself. Cheaper Sammys aren't a patch on their more expensive cousins, however they are generally my brand of choice. Don't know if it'll be in budget, but don't go any lower than the 7K series. 8K is where you notice the real differences. If you do buy a Samsung, then bear in mind that universally their internal speakers are completely dire, so I personally would look elsewhere if you don't have a separate speaker system. Some prefer plasma, some prefer LCD, some OLED. Use your own eyes and trust your instincts, and if a cheap no-name TV looks better then buy that one: No point spending money you don't have to!
  24. Gratz dude
  25. First marriage, now kids: Truly, life is over for you now mate Great pics dude, me and Jo will have to pop over at some point to meet them and catch up.
