STUFF • We got a Wii in house and it sure is sweet. See what resident Wii owner, Jim Louderback, has to say about Nintendo's latest product, and whether or not you should stand in line this weekend to get one. • With the battle between Internet Explorer and FireFox heating up it's easy to forget Opera Web Browser. We had the opportunity to talk to Opera Software's CTO about the abilities, direction and future of the Opera Web Browser. • We had a viewer, Rob, ask about the true frame rate nature of 1080p output of the PS3, Xbox 360, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD. The answer is a bit more complicated than it appears. For a comprehensive explanation, Robert Heron, suggests checking out Alvy Ray's site on the matter at http://alvyray.com/DigitalTV/ • JB wanted to know if he could replace the hard drive in his Inspiron 9100 and then use the included install disc that came with the computer to re-install Windows. The answer depends on a few things. Is there a hidden partition on the current hard drive that is require to re-install the software, is the install disc included just a backup image of what came from factory or an actual install disc. If anyone knows which applies specifically to the Inspirion 9100 please let us know. • Finally a multitude of thoughtful viewers corrected us on a few of the questions we had on tuesday specifically on the locked file that could not be deleted. Many suggested a tool Unlocker available at the authors site here.
