Consumer Electronics - 28 December 2006

i don't know if its the outlets at my new townhome are what. my computer was running fine one day and then the next day it would not turn on. about 2 months after my computer stopped working my 31 in tv starting acting funny. first there was no picture and only sound so i would hit it with my hand and the picture would come back on. well one day i came home and my tv just completely died on me. i walked in and the tv was off when i left it on and it made a loud peep sound a long peep and i tried to turn it on but got nothing i unplugged it and re plugged it and got the sound again. the computer was a 2002 emachine and the tv was like a 2001 GE brand. i did not have either one hooked up 2 a surge protector. help??

Stretch your mind back to about 1988, I think when nintendo was just getting started. What the hell did that robot do? I'm not talking about a video game, but that robot that came as part of the equipment and he dropped some sort of disk. Did anyone have it when they were young?

I just purchased a Pentax Optio E10 digital camera (http://tinyurl.com/smn8j) and I find that when I go to click the Shutter Release button to take the snapshot, there is an awful 2-3 second delay. If i dont stay rock steady for that full time period the image becomes blurry. Very irritating.

From my quick readings the problem seems to be with the Shutter speed. According to sites the camera is 1/1000 to 2 secs. I'm guessing Im hitting the worst case scenario. How exactly does one get the 1/1000 speed? I've already tried holding down the shutter release button half way to set focus then pressing fully when ready but i still experience a 2 sec or so delay.

My images are being shot in standard mode, in doors with lots of light, no flash, and 640x480 image (JPG).

Can someone recommend a way around this delay?

If I had a 1500 watt (3000 peak) power inverter, how many amps could I consistantly pull? I have a mobile DJ system w/ lights that needs just under 20 amps peak. I need a power inverter for my car when I'm in locations (mountains) without power. Thanks for your help. cc

With large screen TVs is there any way to display "Closed Captions" below the picture instead of on top of the picture? So captions are completely off of the picture and not blocking any portion of the picture.
