This was in the days of Fortran, and computers the size of a small house. It sure took me back! We really did have to bring them in from the rain! I was crazy about them!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15774626480247366602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4640470443420164863.post-63297084302352442882009-01-07T00:07:00.000-05:002009-01-07T00:07:00.000-05:00Most DVD players can be easily hacked to play all ...Most DVD players can be easily hacked to play all regions (and PAL/NTSC).

It was especially unnerving because he was eating out of a shared bag of cashews (the giant bag of cashews was pretty unnerving to begin with).<BR/><BR/>Also, if anyone's thinking of buying the Amazon UK DVD, be aware that it's a region 2 DVD and might not play in your DVD player. See all the gory details <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_code" REL="nofollow"> here </A>. <BR/><BR/>There are workarounds and a good one for computer users is to use somthing like <A HREF="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/" REL="nofollow"> VLC media player </A>, which ignores region coding.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4640470443420164863.post-86941558958296655142009-01-05T14:16:00.000-05:002009-01-05T14:16:00.000-05:00The IT Crowd is brilliant, i absolutly love it.Chr...The IT Crowd is brilliant, i absolutly love it.<BR/><BR/>Chris Morris and Charlie Brooker have been involved withmany other projects, and i'd reccomend if you havent seen them;<BR/><BR/>a lesser known comedy : Nathan Barley. about london media types. <BR/><BR/>also,<BR/><BR/>Brass eye & The Day Today, both are satircal documenty/news items, and although looking a little dated now, still retain their comedy value.CSouthwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704468733949923847noreply@blogger.com
