I love my MacBook Pro! By far the best laptop I have ever owned. I used to be a PC guy and grew up being used to Window but I couldn't resist the MacBooks after i previously purchased other Apple products (iPhone, Apple TV, Time Capsule). After using PCs for so long it did take me a little getting used to, i.e. the format, the layout etc. but these computers are so easy to use that i became acclimated very quickly. The design of the computer is sleek yet elegant. The performance is unmatched. It runs quietly and efficiently and is extremely quick. The i7 Intel processor i presume is faster, by how much, I'm not sure, however, the i5 core processor version was at a good price so i snagged it. And it was one of the best choices I've ever made with technology. If you own other Apple products chances are you'll be very happy with Apple computers.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: nothing

Fantastic Remote

Bought this remote for my parents for xmas and was nervous about setting it up because I'd never done it before but it was a breeze. I was able to condense 5 remotes into this one. Very easy to use, one touch activity to your favorite activities. My only regret is that I wish i had purchased the next step up model, the Harmony 700 because of the rechargeable battery factor.
Otherwise, Setup is very easy, and using this remote is very easy
What's great about it: Excellent value, easy to use!
What's not so great: Nothing Yet!

The best $700 I've ever spent!

I recently purchased this Panamax power center to protect my home theater system. I have a Pioneer Elite plasma tv and a Pioneer Elite receiver with some B&W speakers, a PS3, XBOX360 and a DVR. As you can imagine, I've spent a lot of money on a home theater system and I wanted to make sure that it is fully protected. This power center was the one i had my eye on. I run every component through the power center. It has 5 isolated banks to eliminate noise and contamination to other outlets. One of the most important reasons I chose this power center is the AVM (automatic voltage monitoring). This feature is essential to me personally because where I live I do experience a lot of power outages and surges, so making sure that I have a surge protector that can detect unsafe voltages is critical. The final reason I chose this power center is for the filtration. The M5400 features one of Panamax's highest level of power cleaning and filtering, level 4+, which improves picture quality and sound, and I was pleasantly surprised when i saw the difference myself!
I buy high end audio/video equipment and usually buy the protection plans. For instance, i purchased the protection plan for my TV, receiver, and speakers to make sure everything lasts, orh at least guarantee a brand new item in the event something can't be fixed. So I bought a high end power center for my equipment. But i do believe that buying a high end power center is one of the best things you can do to ensure long lasting equipment even if you didn't spend a massive amount of money on your components.
What's great about it: High end surge protection, worth every penny!
What's not so great: absolutely nothing

Love the idea of one multi cable card that allows you to record 4 separae channels at the same time.
Withing in 30 days of purchase, TIVO lowered their price by $100.00. Disappointing that Best Buy did not contact me to offer the same!

Best Buy doesn't contact people if there is a price reduction. And they're not required to, it's up to the customer to pay attention to prices.

I need a power cord to my LG wall mt TV. Do you have these?
Power cord is possibly compromised do to stretching cord through wall. Direct tv rep was out and isolated problem as such or TV. I would like to try cord before having repairman service.

Best Buy Does sell power cords but it is going to depend on the amount of prongs your power connection has on your tv, 2 prong or 3 prong?
Also quick question, are you running the power cord concealed in a wall? Because it is Illegal to do that, at least it is in MA, correct me if I'm wrong if it's not illegal where you live.

Connecting AudioQuest Forest HDMI Cables
I purchased AudioQuest Forest HDMI Cables to connect my Verizon Fios HD/DVR box with my new LG 42" LCD HDTV. I The one side of the HDMI cable as an arrow facing out away from the connection while the other side of the cable has an arrow facing in toward the connection. Which side goes into the Cable box and which side goes into the TV? I connected the arrow facing in to the TV.
The arrow facing away from the connection goes into the cable box, and the arrow facing toward the connection goes into the tv. The arrow away from the connection is always connected to the source and the other facing the connection is always connected to your display. So think of it this way, you're taking the audio and video out of the tv and it is traveling toward and into the TV, so the audio and video is following the arrows to the tv. Hope This helps!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 60 HZ AND 600HZ?
Nothing, if you're asking in terms of Plasma, Plasma TVs do not have a refresh rate. You see those numbers on Plasma tvs because Plasma manufacturers want to keep in competition with LCDs whom do have refresh rates. So it's important to look at that number for LCDs.
60hz on an LCD is the refresh rate. It is the slowest available speed on an LCD. Many Plasmas will say 60hz or 600hz, however this number means nothing on Plasma.
