I think he meant newegg as it was in stock for a while. It's OOS now.

Thanks OP.. In for one for my new conroe computer to be built next month ;)

Must spend $199.

nice! Is it true that you can still order only 1 item every 24 hours even during a woot-off?

If I were to connect the component or DVI I think that it would be HD but svideo and composite are SD.. props to comcast for this free better picture! Thanks for your help guys.

The box I have is a Comcast Dual TV Tuner / HDTV Capable. It has component and DVI out but I am only using composite as my TV does not support the others. Even if its not HD, it looks exactly like a DVD would when I play it through my DVD player with regards to the aspect ratio and quality...

Not sure of the exact model number but its a 36'' toshiba which is 4 years old. Its not even flat.. I'm really impressed with the quality. For CRTs like old school monitors and TVs isn't it true that a higher resolution than its capable of will harm it? Or is it only the refresh rate?

Well this is really odd. I have a normal TV (4:3 and not high def). However when I change the channel 720 (a high def equivalent channel I get for free), there are black bars on the top and the bottom and its really clear. I want to know if this is will harm my TV if I continue to watch this...

Your mileage may vary (YMMV). Basically means that you can try it out but don't expect the same results (depends on managers, customer service reps, etc.).

The price when building it is only $500 too. Check out the lumenlab forums for more info and final results. If you're serious about building, then the $20 guide is worth it. Then you can get help from the experts who have already built one. phpguru

After 2000 hours of use, you have to pay almost half the amount of the projector for the lamp ($300). Are there lamps that are cheaper than this? I'm debating of whether to buy a projector or build my own (lumenlab.com) where the bulbs last 20000 hours and are only $30 to replace. The other plus...

From what I've seen, it seems like a pretty good deal on a T43. And others have said that for $200 with the same specs, they would pick ibm over dell.

I've looked at T42's recently but it doesn't seem like its worth it. Take a look at the 2378FVU. 1.7Ghz (300Mhz Less) 256M ram (768M Less) 40 GB (40GB Less) 64M 9600 (~Same) 14.1 SXGA+ (Same) CD-RW/DVD-ROM (T43 has DVD Burner) 1452+tax. A differece of $500. Am I looking at the...

From what I've seen, the configurations of the T42 with decent specs is $1800. For $150 more I can get sonoma, fingerprint scanner, better processor (faster) and a DVD writer. Isn't that worth it? phpguru

As far as web surfing, emails, presentations, DVDs, mp3 watching.. is the T43 worth it (this deal specifically)? Or will a T42 be better? phpguru
