• Recycling your old electronics: monitors, pcs, cd players, all that good stuff? Rich has 15 years worth of old gear to make go away. We've got the info for you. • Rich also directed us to one pimped out laptop. If you're into Sanrio's popular 2D feline mascot then this laptop is a must have. • Viewer Pic 'O the Week. How many PCs is too many? Judging by David's dorm room not less than 15 we suppose. • Remember Daniel's ransacked BMW? Car insurance generally doesn't cover gear that's stolen from your car... homeowners or renters insurance should. Just work out how to prove you owned it -before- anything gets stolen! • "Is it safe to rest a plasma HDTV on it's side?" It's not a good idea, Chris, but not for the reason your were told. • "Is there a better plasma TV than Pioneer's Elite Pro-1540HD for 6k?" No, Bill, but Rob says you might want to wait for a month: new models are on the way from Pioneer! • HDMI premium cables follow up. Worthwhile purchase or just slick marketing? The answer may surprise you... or maybe not. In any case it seems Gizmodo agrees with Rob's assessment. Funny that. ;-) • You can use your cell phone as a modem, Chris... it's called DUN: dial up networking. www.howardforums.com is a huge help! • Oops! We forgot something...Here is the link where Patrick is walking across the street in SF close to the studio from Google Maps Street View.
