You can get good prices on lots of electronics if you buy the floor/demo models. They are brand new, they've just been used in the store and you can get great prices on them. We've bought a couple of monitors like that.

Duh! I have always been confused by Yahoo / Yahoo groups. I do have a Yahoo I.D. and password from at least a couple years ago. Still good? Where do I actually sign into Yahoo with it? I want to join a Freecycle group. When I try to sign in / up with the group (new name, etc.), every name I try is used. That's not possible? (I don't like to use any form of my own name.) What? How? Yahoo?

I have an HP Ipaq which I use 99% for the GPS feature. When dd's and I head to Florida in a couple months I thought I would bring it with me and load a few movies on it which I haven't done before. How do I do this? I have an Itunes account for music, can I download TV series through Itunes and then transfer it to the memory card? Can anyone recommend where I would go for movies? I thought Itunes had movies as well but I can't see where (unless it will come up if I ever install the annoying update it keeps trying to foist on me LOL) Can I (easily) transfer movies that I own on DVD onto a memory card?

Rissa, you HAVE to install the annoying update, hate to tell ya! then it pops up on the front page. as for transfering movies, not an easy process, you have to have multiple programs to do it, and they aren't free!

Dang, was hoping you wouldn't say that. LOL I WOULD install the update but everytime I try, it makes it about 25% then freezes. It's been about 2 months now. I guess I will email them for a solution. (sigh) Dang on the copying disks too. I don't mind paying to buy movies, but it does irk a bit when it's bound to be one I already own and only want it on a memory card for a few days. Thanks Landi!!

I'm getting a Sony Bravia HD 40" 1080 dpi LCD flatscreen on Friday! No cable or satellite here now or ever -- just antenna TV, regular TiVo, and DVD player to hook up. Have had the TiVo for four years and is working fine. (Knock-on-wood.) Thinking in the future . . . . Depending on reception (sometimes not always so good from rooftop antenna) and how long TiVo box lasts, may get satellite. (I hear bad things about Comcast cable in this area.) Are the DVRs supplied by satellite companies at least as good as TiVo? I love my TiVo.

Is anyone having trouble getting into their Hotmail account? I keep gettin a Windows Live Hotmail page telling me to sign in, but there is no place to sign in, just sign up! So I go to my MSN account, where I'm already signed in, but it won't let me read my email at Hotmail. Kinda like the trouble others were having with Yahoo a few months ago. Please Help!

I had a message DISAPPEAR just now. I was reading it, then went to my inbox and it was gone! Checked deleted folders, and then all other folders and it's nowhere to be found.

No, Urgrace. I've been on it and checking email for my MSN account all day long. I just checked my Hotmail account, and all is well there, too. Close all browser windows and clear the cache. Then try again. I don't know how you get in, but I just tested by going to www.msn.com, clicking Hotmail, and logging in to my Hotmail account.

Really quick question, I need just a few votes either YEA or NAY for Mozilla Thunderbird? I'm using Windows Mail now for Vista and I desperately miss the functionality from Outlook that allowed my email to play nicely with Windows Calendar. A search for a plug in gave me TONS of hits for Thunderbird with something called Lightning that will connect a calendar to your email. Thunderbird, plus or minus Lightning: YEA or NAY?

I've used Thunderbird for years and I love it. I haven't used the Lightning plugin, so I don't know about that.

Thunderbird is excellent, though like Ladytex, I haven't used the Lightning plugin so I can't comment on that.

Thanks, guys! I think that if the comments on Thunderbird are good, and I   Mozilla Firefox, I think the Lightning should be stellar, too. I'll install tonight. I'd like to be able to use it for work... can I import all my contacts and emails from Windows Mail, or would I have to start building that from scratch again?

Hopefully this is a good place to ask this.... I want to share some videos (both here and on another board). Apparently using my personal web space (through Comcast) is causing problems for folks to view. So I want to find a good video sharing site. I'm reluctant to use YouTube, cause I don't want anyone and their cousin to see it. I want to control who sees the videos. From what I can tell, you can set the video to "private" on YouTube, but then you have to designate each and every individual who can see it. That means everyone on both boards would have to join YouTube, then let me know who they are, request to be in my "friends and family" list....etc, etc, etc. Too much trouble for the potential viewer, and for me. I'd like to be able to upload a video, set a password, and then share that password here (or in my personal folder). Then those who want to see the video can do so without performing a song and dance routine with me first. Are there any sites like that? And are reliable enough to not slam the viewer with spyware. And make the video fairly easy to load?

But also Who if it's not something you don't want the 'world' seeing then I wouldn't share with anyone because some how some way it will get out to the 'world'.

I agree Who, esp if you post your password here or in your folder. Is it the comments you're not wanting on youtube? If so you can set your videos to not allolw comments, and then just let people you share the link with comment on whatever board you post the link on.

Or there's always myspace. You can upload the video and set it to private and only those on your friends lists can see it. You'll have to authorize your friends, but it's just a click of the button. On myspace you can also set it so nobody else can embed it onto their myspace page.

Hey Nyheat thank's for the photobucket idea. I just joined and am attempting to upload a video there that youtube kept lagging out on. Wanted to be able to share a video on TVCH but not my myspace page so hopefully this will work out good.
