She goes into the TV lounge where they are all watching summat on the box and speaks to an old geezer who's grinning all over his face: 'Hello my good man, are you well?' 'Yep.' 'Are they looking after you?' 'Yep.' This is a very nice place isn't it?' 'Yep.' 'Do you like it here?' 'Yep.' 'Oh good, I em glad and wot's your name then?' 'Napoleon Bonaparte.' 'Oh!', sez she, with her fingers over her mouth 'Who gave you that name then?' 'God did.' Loud, angry voice from the other side of the room: 'OH NO I FARKING DIDN'T......!!' ;-) |

Talking only DVD media here, I have found that the 'better' (ie less prone to failure) disks are, without exception, the branded 'famous names' like Philips, Ricoh, Maxell, Memorex, Imation, HP etc. I have not yet had one failure from disks like these. Cheap, unbranded disks that I have tried are Maplins own and PC World's own 'PC Line' - failure rates here were about 3%. snip Thanks for the info, Keith. I've noticed that the drive prices are coming down, but haven't been keeping an eye on media prices or speeds. I don't have a DVD burner at present, but I've been thinking about getting one sometime. I think I'd mainly use it for data backups and recording stuff off the TV, assuming there's VCR-type software available (I don't have a TV or VCR - just a TV card in the computer). -- Wally www.artbywally.com |

Oh dear, that's just a little *British* isn't it?

Now read the following closely (taken from Google)...... "Welcome to LG, one of the largest Korean companies. LG is Global leader in chemicals, electronics, telecommunications, distribution, and finance. LG Web ... Description: A $73 billion business group with 120000 employees in 120 countries.

Let the figures sink in and think about what you have just said..... in any case, I've had the misfortune of seeing a fair number of LG drives - and I didnt like any of them. No? OK, take a look at the US site (always look at the US and Japanese versions of a multinational's websites to get an up-to-date picture of what's going on) and see if they have anything to tempt you: http://us.lge.com/products/models/cd...ves_index.html nothing there takes your fancy? (I am using 2 different LG drives atm and they both work perfectly fine.) While you're there, also go and take a look at the monitor page: http://us.lge.com/products/models/monitors_index.html I was in the local computer shop the other day and they have an LG monitor on the go - I thought it was absolutely stunning!

Wrong. .wav is a container format, just like .avi for "Video for Windows" and .ogg for some types of open-source multimedia files (eg. audio encoded with Vorbis, Speex, FLAC, and video encoded with Theora). Yup. All sorts of things can hide behind the WAV extension. But, in normal usage, WAV referrs to one of the uncompressed varieties. |

However consider that I found recent tests of the Live! that basically agree with the older tests that Dormer made a big stink about. A piece of friendly advice - watch out for people like Dormer who post with the "no archive" flag turned on. They do this to avoid taking resposibility for what they say. Between switching posting name every fortnight to month, and the use of the "no archive" flag it's almost impossible to hold Dormer responsible for what he's said, even in the recent past. IOW, Dormer is 100% troll, veneer of technology notwithstanding. |

OK, we have different experiences then, but the last thing I did as a 'semi-retired (but not that old) fart' before we moved up here was spend a year as Network Manager/Computer Technician at a Comprehensive School running 120+ PCs and 4 different networks and all the usual ancillaries. I saw every make of every different type of kit you can think of go tits up at some time or another and also saw a lot of crappy looking kit running day in and day out like good 'uns (including LG monitors). Schools and Universities are hard places for IT gear, mebbe even harder than an office environment (it's got more than a little to do with type of person who's using it a lot of the time), but you are missing my point - you are allowing past experience to prejudice your view of today's offerings from a substantial company like it is incapable of correcting mistakes or improving its products. There is something elsewhere about SB soundcards to this effect atm and recently there was some traffic here about IBM Deskstar hard drives going tits up (I had two of these go West myself). What's that then - Creative Labs and IBM out the window now? Does LG get to be the size it is by producing mountains of only ****e kit? - I don't think so..... Believe me, if any of the 3 LG burners in use in my family crap out, I'll be the first to bleat about it! Anyway it's a shame because I've got this LG L3000H 30" (30" VIS) WXGA Active Matrix TFT Color LCD Monitor I don't need any more and I was going to offer it to you...... *ding dong* Hang on a minute, there's some more kids at the door!

No, you point isnt lost on me, honest. My monitor is an Iiyama Vision master Pro 400 (the previous was a VMpro 17 - I wish the later numbers meant what the earlier ones did!) When I got my 17, I sent it back (poor convergence). I sent the replacement back because the red gun was loose I sent *its* replacement back because it wasnt sharp enough. The fourth one... the fourth one... stayed up! (and didnt burn down or fall into the swamp). I think its 7 years old now, and when I had it (2 years of its life) it was on 24/7/365. My dad uses it now, and it still looks as good as the day I bought it (he uses it far less, though). My 400 is the third I owned. (I sent the first two back for similar reasons to the original 17's). Its been running for 5 years now, almost entirely 24/7/365 (displaying a picture the whole time - I never power it down as it takes too long for the picture to 'lock' in place from cold (I adjust mine to use every last phosphor smudge on the screen). And its only now starting to go downhill (not reliability, but the picture tube is gradually fading - its contrast is worsening, and it actually has burn-in of the task bar! not a common thing to see in a modern unit - gives some idea of the punishment it gets!) I'd buy another Iiyama unit in a flash, partly because (once I do the QC guys job for him) they seem to be solid units, but mostly because the customer service has be *ABSOLUTELY* stunning - they did not argue (nor should they have) even once - and THEY paid all the postage! If I could afford one of their 1600x1200 TFTs I'd have one *in a flash*. LG on the other hand, almost *never* acknowledge faults, and, even when its proven to be their fault, they wont do the honourable thing (and this isnt just the recent drive failures under linux due to their non-compliance to the atapi spec).
