The system works, that is to say we are using it to handle the audio for the tv and directv but we have a dvd in the drawer and can not get it to eject or play.

I'm staying at someone's house. I looked up online how much it would cost to make a call to Russia. I thought I read about 31 cents per minute, so I thought that would be OK and I could pay them back later. I'm so stupid. I just realized that the site I read it from was for rates with the international plan. I do not think that they have an international plan. I haven't been able to find the rates for calling international without the plan. I fear that it will be very expensive. So could someone give me the rate for what I believe is a basic home phone plan for AT&T for an international call to Russia? I think I'm screwed. God help me, I might end up having to explain why there's a $200 dollar international charge on my friend's phone bill. I was on for about 47 minutes. God help me.

I need to tranform some vhs tapes into dvds. However, it's an entire series and the episodes in the vhs tapes are not in order. Thus, I want, while recording some episodes, to leave the dvd disc open so that I can put them in order, without needing to use lots of dvd discs in order to transform episode by episode. Is this possible? Can the dvd disc remain open and continue recording from the point you've left the previous episode? By the way, as long as durability is concerned, which are the most persistent in time; dvds or vhs tapes?

It puts out 80 watts per channel at 8ohms and I am wondering what is the most powerfull speaker I could add to the system. For example could I connect a pair of Floor Speakers with a max of 100 watts or should I connect something that is lower than 80watts?

I have a Rotary Phone from the (60's-80's). I adapted it so that it would accept calls and it has full voice (mine and theirs). My problem is that it was used an extention phone so that you just talk and no dialing was used. So I cant dial any numbers just talk if someone is already on the line or calls me. When I opened her up, I noticed the wires from tthe dialer were disconnected. SO all I need is to know where they need to be plugged in or atleast a clue to what it might look like. Ex: the green cord goes in slot A. Any clues would be appreciated, Thanks!

I want to record my vinyl albums and cassettes to CDs, but I am not a technically sophisticated guy, so I want to make it as simple as possible. It is my impression that there are three fairly simple vinyl to CD recorders that I can consider:

Crosley Songwriter CR 248 PA
Teac GF-650
Teac GF-350

I have read that the Teac GF-350 makes low quality CD recordings, and if that is so, I don't want it. Can you confirm whether that is true? That leaves the Crosley Songwriter CR 248 PA and the Teac GF-650, both which sell for $400-$500. I would be very interested in seeing what you think about:

Is either the Crosley Songwriter CR 248 PA or the Teac GF-650 easier to use, or less buggy?
Which of the Crosley Songwriter CR 248 PA or the Teac GF-650 makes better sounding LPs to CDs?
I have a really high quality cassette deck, can I use the AUX input on the Teac GF-650 to record my cassettes onto CDs?
Anything else I should consider?

I wanted to buy the Sony DSC-T20W, It looks like a good camera, but then i read the customer reviews. The people who have just bought it are really happy with it. But then i read the reviews of people who've had the camera for more than a few months and seem to be having serious problems with it. Having had to repair it twice in less than a year.

After agonizing days over a cell phone number that has been calling, I actually was stupid enough to pay $14.95 to Intelius to get the name of the caller. You know what I got? The name of the phone company - US Cellular......I don't know whether to laugh ... or... cry!!!
