Because I would have to disconnetc the A/V and composite outputs and reconnect them to my neighbor's house upstairs. Alternatively, I could a camcorder and connect it to the receiver but i am unable to connect it via USB.

I captured alot of February 2008 songs including one i need id for.

Seems that a lot of people in my subdivision hate Comcast. More than half of the units have satellite dishes on their roofs (most are DirecTV).

Yeah, we had a Tornado Warning here, but no actual tornados have been reported, AFAIK.  :twothumbs:

What I want to know is why TWC was running a Severe Weather Update scroll during all of this instead of a Tornado Warning Scroll.  :o

Ugh, don't even get me started on Vista. I liked it at first, but after several months of dealing with it, it's getting really annoying. It freezes up more often than XP, and it's a memory hog, too. I even have trouble with playing videos (locally, not on sites like YouTube), even with my laptop plugged in and on high performance.

Until Microsoft gets Vista to be an actual useable operating system, I still prefer XP, and if I could I would downgrade my laptop to XP. :yes:

I'm sorry, but I'm joining your camp.  Vista does not impress me.  What's so different about it besides it behaving a lot slower? :no:

Me too. I hate spiders. In fact, spiders and snakes are my two biggest fears.  :ninja:
