neither...use dircetconnect by neomodus...very good. I average  250kb/s with DSL, which is good considering I'm shring wireless with 3 other comps, and splitting off to my X-Box.

speaking of which, who has checked out Yavin for Knights of the Old Republic?

Yeah, it's a room with a guy who says some stuff, and has some bits to sell.

Nothing too interesting.

Yeah, he's got some pricey stuff that's really nice if I recall. It's just a space station though.

I have a Question is there any such connector cord that has a plug for a computer monitor on one end and an A/V plug on the other. I am wondering because I wanted just to buy a nice hard drive and computer tower to hook up to my TV. Also I will be getting wireless mouse and keyboard. If you could help me that would be great.

Get a video card with a TV out. The problem is that it generally looks utterly awful on a TV.

Yeah, TVs don't have the same display capabilities as a computer monitor. Its almost always blurry. However if you're watching something on your computer, a DVD in your DVD-drive for example, it'll look just fine if you pipe it out to your TV.

Ok thanks I was just wondering because my dad wanted to do that. I also thought that it would be kind of cool because I would have a TV computer mix. I am also thinking though that I could get an LCD projector and hook up my DVD, VCR, TV, Stereo, & Computer to it and project it on the wall. The only thing is LCD projectors are expensive.

if your going for the best performance/price ratio, just go with the standard load out, theres a reason its the standard loadout. and ya, i have a realy long S-Video Cable running to my TV from my video card, that works well, but as they7 said, the picture is crappy if your not watching a DVD or summat like that.

It'll work pretty well with a projector.

Yea I have been using one of my schools projectors and it works really great if you have a perfectly dark room.
