  • On vid via net. I've gone on and on this last year on how the majority of my non DVD video watching has been from the net. I also tend to go on and on about Battlestar Galactica (geek sci fi problem I've had for 37 years) but in 2008 I've been able to use that program as a perfect example of how the cable is cut, the satellite dish isn't parked on my property, and off the air programming is of little to zero interest to me. Last night I watched from my iPod classic via the Apple cables BSG I acquired from iTunes. This was the non HD version. Apparently the HD stuff won’t work on the 160g iPod classic. This program looked slightly worse than some of the early DVDs. That’s not a bad thing. The audio sounded great cranked up on a couple of studio monitors. This made me a very happy viewer because the picture quality is better than cable or off the air programming, I watch it whenever I want, and it’s something I choose to watch.

    I have not made the plunge to plugging video out from computer to TV, but I expect that is next. It might even be through Apple products even if I was underwhelmed at their unveiling of not a whole lot last Tuesday.
  • Todd,

    Thank you for your service to the nation. Finally, someone has the courage to stand before God and man and declare "foodie" a ridiculously embarrassing word.

    I think the preferred term is "Gastronome."

    As in, "Mad Max, Beyond Gastronome."
  • What a great video thanks
