Does anybody watch TV on their computer? now a bachelor now i was wondering if anybody else has TV on their computer, or is it pushing it a little too far - the whole boys and our toys image.
I can get SKY in all rooms and on all TVs in my house, but wondering about people's thoughts on the whole is it / is it not worth it to get on my computer as well ...
My mom gets tv on her computer. I don't know if it's worth it.
Probably a good person to ask would Be Asip... where ever he is! I think he had one. I've personally never even seen that before but then again, I'd rather just cuddle up on the couch and watch tv that way!
My PC is my entertainment center. I can do what i want from it. Watch tv while i surf the net, record shows when i'm not even home....Everything is saved right to my 250 GB hard drive...Total control! My new PC came with Windows XP Media Center so the features are pretty cool.
watching TV on the PC is cool, i download the new episodes of stargate atlantis which havent even been aired in the USA (yet) :D
I do. I also play my Playstation on my monitor but I did it through cable.

Shh! was just crying for attention so she changed her name, that's all.

And yes, they are both very very gorgeous celebrities.
Nah - he is definitely not my type. He has a skinny little boy @ss and legs, and is kind of blonde-ish. I'm sticking with George Clooney. (Come to think of it, though, wasn't he in a movie with her?)_Quote:

Thanks all for your comments and after a short interlude discussing the subtle nuances of shh! now being called vashti and the possibility of in the near future another name change, to see if lloyd can have a nervous breakdown, I went ahead and got a TV card anyway.

Asip, to second your post, I too can now play games, whilst watching TV and / or be browsing the internet and buring p*rn to DVD at the same time. To surther the status of geek amongst at least some of us on the LF, i've just recently bought my second SATA150 60Gb hardrive (they're dirt cheap, but great for doing complicated things with) with really funky slim-line cabbling to the mothership :), now have two SATA150 drives on a RAID 0+1 array, creating redundancy on both drives whilst running in parallel, so all files are read and written to both drives at the same time meaning that ooh my god my brain is melting, damn it, must stop - but then I'm a sucker for punishment and will be getting another two identical drive so i'm gonna end up with four identical SATA150 drives on a RAID array doing who only knows what with one another.
ps - all *video's* are stored on a seperate 160Gb drive.
*/end not to be read by those easily sent to sleep by geeky things* :)
... but aye, being able to record programmes and pause live TV is very great indeed, but i guess the novelty will wear off in a bit :surprised
You forgot to mention the part where Asip called Lloyd an ass in your recap.Quote:

Hope you've been keeping weel since I was last in the LF :)
Oooh! Pretty twinkle lights; very festive! I wish you a happy holiday...
