Some day blue ray players may play older dvds but it takes a different type of laser on both disk so unless you blue ray players states it will play older disk, keep a player around for the older disk or convert them to disk images on your hard drive so you can rip them to another format. |

View To A Kill? License to Kill? Ocotopussy? Does discussing "Pussy", which is slang for both the female groin, and a cat, pass the current moderation rules? BOINC WIKI |

Angela shouldnt you be bulldozeing Erics den? No, for safety reasons I wait until he vacates his den before I start up the bulldozer. I'm sure he'll come out of there at some point this weekend, but I may have to wait until he is distracted by a football game, an electronics surplus sale or a stray cat. |

Win... Better attend than be the guest of honor. Know the feeling. I'm now working because the gentleman who I'm replacing was just told he has two months left on earth. When I got the call everyone thought I'd just be subbing for a week or two while he was out sick. Sad to clean out someone's desk who you knew. Lung cancer, yes smoking. Don't do it, it will kill you!

I don't think about that much because we buy few DVD's. We have a DVD recorder that records DVD's region free and we record the keepers off our Dish receiver. However Obama should have though of that before he gave the DVD collection to prime minister of England. |

You must have missed the news story. Obama gave the English Prime Minister a collection of classic movies on DVD on his visit to England. Not only did they have the wrong region code but they also were NTSC instead of PAL. On top of that, the Prime Minister is not a big fan of movies. |

Collection of old tech? I still have LP, 33's, punch cards, floppy disc's, tapes, 8mm film, 35 mm film, aps, you name it. Much has been converted, but not all. The only thing I am having a problem playing are super disks. I think they lost there magnetic encoding. Oh well, that was just my wife's stuff. |
