  1. Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows (v3)

    3.0.9 (Apr 21, 2009)

    To the guy that had the message about removing IE8 might harm Fiirefox,
    Well all I have to say is That XP SP3 was brought out to make people move to Vista !!!! it nearly messed up my Instalation of Xp SP2 that i had on my old PC for 4 years
    This is what they do when your not doing what they want .

  3. Comment - Blu-ray Today: An analyst predicts 2009 will finally be its year

    3.0.9 (Apr 26, 2009 - 4:59 PM)

    It always amazes me when people write reams of repetitive boring supposedly intelligent comment when in reality all they need to say is "not for me" or "1080i is amazing I love it which it is" ( granted if your eyesight is poor then logic apply's)
    But really one of the real reasons that BluRay has been slow to take of is that :- for instance if there had been a special release PS3's last year with the Double Trilogy of StarWars on BluRay then the PS3 / BluRay would be a lot more popular , dont you think, almost the top 30 biggest Box Office movies ever have not come out on BluRay, Why??? I dont know Im waiting for Lawrence of Arabia to come out on BluRay which should be fantastic, But will I live to see the day (I Am 55)

    One thing that i think needs review is, I dont belive that it costs the Manufacturer 40% extra in costs to Make BluRay Discs. I think that if they lowered the Price they would find there Profit would go up.
    I mean people stand in a store with in one hand say "The Reader for $19.99 DVD" and "the Reader for $29.99 BluRay" in the other, Most people will chose the cheaper because most modern movie DVD's produce very good quality on 1080 screens

    But yes on the whole 1080i resolution is fantastic and CBS live HiDef broadcasts are fantastic,
    these days there is no excuse not to buy a 1080 screen as your new TV
    Can you remember being charged $1000 dollars for a 36" "Tube screen" 15 years ago I can, now there selling 47" 1080i widescreen for $1300 .
    I call that price reasonable seeing your screen is bigger and the Resolution has to be seen to be believed, the first week or so you marvel at the Detail and clarity
    Also if you buy the PS3 as your Player, you get a machine that is easy to update as regards the BluRay Firmware that Sony will bring out in the future, and you get a good Games Player in to the bargin for $399 Lastly the PS3 has WiFi
    I have a PS3server on my WiFi equipped PC- that links up with my Playstation 3 so that i can Browse Pictures from my PC to my PS3 in colossal size
    But there again some people are just stuck in the last Century arnt they !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Comment - Christmas shopping not looking so much 'Blu' as dismal

    3.0.9 (Nov 14, 2008 - 5:05 AM)

    I have said many times that, the reason there is not as many BluRay sales as normal DVD's is because the Movies that have come out the last 3 years have mostly been average.
    Now if StarWars Double Trilogy, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Titanic, Lawrence of Arabia, Aliens Quadtrilogy, Jurassic Park Trilogy, Schindlers List, Indiana Jones Boxset, and Gladiator, Came out on BluRay this Christmas, there would be no doubt what would be top of the DVDBluRay Charts=== All of the above and some. All of a sudden BluRay would be popular

  5. Comment - Analyst revises 2008 Blu-ray sales downward by 25%

    3.0.9 (Oct 21, 2008 - 1:08 AM)

    Now if Sony were to manage to get respective Movie Companies to Release the Following Movies to come out on Blu-ray :- StarWars Double Trilogy, Alien Quadrilogy, Titanic, Lawrence of Arabia, Jurrasic Park Trilogy, Indy Quad, lORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY, and on and on, then I would predict a Booming Christmas for Blu-Ray Sales,... Dont you Think Du!!!!
