Roughly two weeks ago my new living room furniture was delivered. Shortly thereafter I decided that my existing LCD TV (Samsung 32") was too small for the new and improved living room.

I decided I needed a larger TV and went out and purchased a Samsung 46" LCD TV (120Hz, 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 4ms response time). However, I needed a new TiVo and I also decided to purchase a Blu-ray Player.

I ended up purchasing a TiVo HD, a Samsung Blu-Ray Player, and a Harmony One remote.

Today Time Warner delivered my CableCARD and my new living room is fully functional.

I don't plan on leaving my couch this weekend. I'll post photos tomorrow.

My cable sucks. i have Discovery and a few other channels that only have sound from the left speaker now, the cable company confesses to the sin, and their best advice is "turn your sound settings to mono".

April called and they are giving me a whole $11 off this month. Wooo. :(
 
Matt you should have went with a PS3 for your Blu-Ray player. Unless your samsung can be upgraded with firmware. :)

I already upgraded the firmware on it. Not into Playstation. I'll take a Wii though.

Carpo, the floor is always clean. I have OCD.

damnyank, thank you. The TV is awesome. I had digital installed yesterday (CableCARD activation because I have TiVo). I watched all the sports I could find in HD, amazing.
 
I don't want to be cool.

Photos added to first post.

LIAR, you said you weren't getting off your couch this whole weekend.

Well, I see your couch and you're not on it :(

I used to get that feeling, sitting and you see something that needs cleaned and soon you have cleaned your whole place and it didn't really need it.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
