Whoops! Once Again 'Special-Dave' Proves He Is NO Libertariano...
Those two guys at ShopNBC tee vee channel are talking about Mitsubishi
DLP 73'' (there is a 65'' model available too, $2,149) with Stand Diamond Series 1080p HDTV Two 3D Glasses 3D Blu-Ray Player.$2,749 S&H Included. 800 474 6762 They said that Blu-Ray Player will turn non 3D movies into 3D movies.You can surf the internet and do your emailing, all kinds of stuff, you can even use your smart phone and do stuff on that fancy new fangled tee vee set.That's wayyyyyyyyy too fancy and too new fangled for me.I never would figure out how to work it. Dave is right though.Usually you can't hardly tell the difference between 740 and 1080, most HDTV sets anyway. cuhulin |

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeittttt, I am thinking this here week I am goin to tote my
ATRIX phone and tote my ATRIX keyboard BACK across Highway 80 to that thar AT&T retail store (it's only about two blocks, maybe less than two blocks South of doggy's couch) and git my money back.Of course they will charge a restocking/whatever fee.I think that guy over said either ten or 20 percent. I have to sit straight up and hunch over and squint my eyeballs to see that little ATRIX keyboard dock screen.MOFO is KILLING my back! You know what they say, a damn fool is born every minute. I have come to realize ATRIX is not for me.ATRIX is for people whom are on the go a lot of times/people who tote.I don't effing tote. cuhulin, I don't tote |
Walmart doesn't sell HDTVs anymore? You ought to see the electronics
department in the Dangerous Walmart Supercenter store I go to, (Greenway Drive near the intersection of Highway 18, about one and a half mile South of doggy's couch) mostly for food shopping.I never counted them, but I reckon there are at least twenty, maybe more, HDTV tee vee sets on display over there. There are at least seven Dangerous Walmart Supercenter stores in the Jackson/Jackson metro area.The next nearest Dangerous Walmart Supercenter store (in Clinton,Missy Sippy) is on Highway 80 about four miles West of doggy's couch.I haven't been in that store in about a month or so, but they had HDTV tee vee sets on display in there too. Pickup on South Street movie is on my Sony Wega Trinitron 27 inchs flat screen tv set right now, Fox Movie Channel.I bought that tv set in 2006 at one of the Cowboy Maloney stores around here.The movie on there looks Great to me, even though it is not in HDTV. cuhulin |

I now 'appears' that Walmart no longer carries the 1080i HDTVs or any other "i" TVs OK so what the 'difference' {real advantage} between the : 42" 1080p with 60 Hz Refresher Rate -and-a- 42" 1080p with 120 Hz Refresher Rate ~ RHF * .- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - * * * 60 Hz *vs. 120 Hz . *----- * Let's hear what Dave thinks about it . *Oh, btw. Walmart is a deadly place , *I don't like them . Arthrny -remember- Wal*Mart Love$ You ! Here anything beyond Wal*Mart {Sonora, CA} is 35 Miles down a winding two lane road to Oakdale and beyond. {Modesto, CA 'the big city' is another 15 Miles or so... Even Wal*Mart is 12 Miles down the Road. - Movies are 24 fps. That flicker is unresolvable by - normal people. 120 is 5 times that. Divides evenly. - I don't see a technical reason to repeat the same - frame over and over real fast. 120 makes sense. Dave : So by inference to your above statement : I can conclude that 24 into 60 is 2.5 and does not Divide Evenly : So 60 is not as good as 120. ~ RHF |

Yeah, in fact of the business,,,, this afternoon when I took my ATRIX stuff back to the store for a refund, that lady said because I wrote a check, I have to wait ten business days to get my money back, minus $35.00 restocking fee.So, I gits to play with my ATRIX stuff untill next Monday.

Arra, I paid $199.99 for the phone and $499.99 for the laptop dock.I am
playing with the phone right now.Yeah, I am now sort of kind of thinking maybe I will keep the phone and just get a refund on the laptop dock.The phone is real neat, the latest technology and all that good stuff.I will go back to that AT&T store tomorrow (on my way to the Goodwill store, of course) and double check on how much the AT&T monthly service price is, but I am not sure AT&T is charging me money for me to use my phone.I have got to check that out. Looka here, doggy's couch is less than one quarter of a mile from that big tall cell tower on Lynch Street, over there behind Metrocenter Mall.I wonder if any WiFi devices will get free WiFi signal from there to doggy's couch? If I plug in one of my WiFi radios (Linksys Wireless B Music System or my Aluratek WiFi clock radio, will they catch a good enough signal so I can listen to live Ireland and Live Scotland and live Isle of Manx radio? cuhulin |
My Sony Wega Trinitron has the usual Audio and Video jacks on the back
and there is one S-Video jack and the threaded jack where my DirecTV cable is screwed on there and there is also one ATSC (what is ATSC?) threaded jack on the back of the tv set.There are two Video jacks and one Audio jacks under a little flip up panel on the front.I bought that tv set at a Cowboy Maloney store on December 5,2006. I have six or seven WebTV set top boxes and about that many wireless keyboards and hand held remotes, they all work too.I have looked yet, but I know there is a fuse inside of those WebTV boxes. When I bought my first WebTV box on October 15,1999, I also bought a new 27 inch screen RCA CRT tv set, for my WebTV.It had ProScan.About two something years ago, that RCA tv set kicked the bucket, it wouldn't turn on at all, other than make a Bump noise when I tried to turn it on.I think some capacitors or something was leaking, there was some messy sticky stuff underneath the tv set.I set it out front for the garbage truck to pick it up.I went to the Walmart store on Highway 80 in Clinton, (about four or five miles West of doggy's couch) and I bought a Sansui 27 inch screen CRT tv set, for my WebTV. cuhulin |

The first tv set I bought from a Cowboy Maloney store was a Toshiba.A
few days later that Toshiba developed a blur on the bottom left hand side of the screen.That blur wouldn't go away.I took it back to Cowboy Maloney and bought the Sony.I paid about $38.00 more in price difference for my Sony.Somewhere around not much more than about $350.00 in toto, I think, maybe it wasen't that much.I have my receipt somewhere around here, it would take me forever to find it.No where near $1,000 did I pay, not even near $500.00.So far, my Sony Wega Trinitron tv set is still working just as good as new.It pulls in a Great picture, as far as I am concerned. cuhulin, the Sony |

Analog days' "HD" , sort of . My WebTV box has an S-video output in the back . One time I hooked up a v-e-r-r-r-y e-x-p-e-n-s-i-v-e 6 foot S-video jumper (by Kimber Kable) . It actually cost twice what I paid for the WebTV and the WebTV keyboard combined ; the result was quite interesting to see on a 35" 'high resolution' CRT monitor .

The temperature got down to the 40's last night.When I woked up this
morning, it was 46 degrees inside my flower box on doggy's front porch, damn Cold! Room Warmers are Good.They are my Room Warmers and I will use them when I want to. Big envelope from PC World I received about a year ago, it has a DVR in it, I don't know what's on that DVR.I wrote on that envelope in big letters, DOG TEETH.Before doggy and I hit the sack tonight I will put that envelope on top of my coffee cup.Ergo doggy has an appointment at 9:00 AM in the morning at Animal Medical Center to get her teeth cleaned.At least she has teeth, I don't gots no teeth. We got True Grit back to back on the AMC tee vee channel right now. Well, come an see a fat old man sometime! ~ John Wayne. cuhulin |
