The blu-ray movie cases are nice and thin, whereas the games have cases about as thick as a dvd case. Why the difference? Most games don't have very thick manuals, and they should be able to fit into a thinner case. Am I the only one who would prefer thinner cases?

PS2 is the cheapest system to get if you can't afford a next-generation system, besides PS2 has a lot more games! Do you think PS2 is better than Xbox 360? Cause I've read about the Red Ring of Death.

My poor little TV... we have only had it for a few years, but it started doing this weird thing about a week ago. The entire screen would go black except for a thin horizontal line right in the middle of the screen. It would do that then go back to normal, and flicker back and forth, but eventually calm down. But now when I turn it on it goes to the horizontal line for about three seconds and turns itself off. I have to unplug the TV to get it to even turn back on again, but it keeps turning itself back off. In short, my TV is possessed. Other than hiring an exorcist, is there anything that I can do to save my TV, or is it time to break down and buy a new one? Thank you for your advice!

I was looking to modify my PS2 and it said "DVD region Free with RCE support:
Watch all region DVD movies on your PS2." Does that mean it'll play imported games or it will just play imported DVDs?

It won't take calls and I can't call anyone. This has been an ongoing problem for several weeks now. It's not like I'm in a bad reception area; it just won't take or send calls PERIOD!

I took it in and got a new SIM card but it still won't work. Is there any way I can take it in to get it fixed so I won't have to get another phone (and get into another 2 yr. contract)? The one-year warranty has expired.

Hey everyone,
So I have a dell projector that I project from the back of a room onto a while. I noticed today that the picture was pretty crooked so I did some adjusting and got the top of the picture aligned and both of the sides straight (I used a yard stick). The bottom however is off by about an inch from one side to the other. Meaning the bottom corner off one side is an inch higher then the bottom corner on the other side.

I was using an all white screen, I know the walls/floor are not crooked, and the projector is on a flat surface. What settings could I adjust that would only affect the bottom, or do I need to readjust the entire thing.

I have charter digital cable (and please, no get satellite tv, we can't...sorry) and I'm the only one in the house who has the dvr box (motorola) and the picture has been freezing off and on for the past few days but right now it's totally frozen on all channels. The other cable box upstairs is fine.
I tried unplugging the box, disconcerting the cable from it and it's still frozen in the same spot.

What else can I do?

I have a Canon XTi that works fine with the EF 18-55mm f4-5.6. I was able to change the shutter speed under the Tv mode and the aperture under the Av mode. Also, I was able to adjust both under the M mode. BUT, when I use the EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 len, i have a f00 reading at all time (not blinks). I can't change the aperture (even under the Av mode), only the shutter speed. Is the len defective or is there something i'm missing or not doing it right? Also, how come the camera show a f value greater than the len indicated ie on the EF 18-55mm f4-5.6 len, I could dial it up to f16 and beyond? Is f stop and f value are the same (aka aperture, right?)?
