Re: No, not quite

I was going to say this too, although the article does go on to say the Bridge is still needed if you're going for the 5.1 setup.

I might be able to free up a plug & ethernet socket now!

Re: Processors and HDMI

They do, but only for certain models.

Re: accidents waiting to happen

Yep, it's not easy to see in the pic but there's a button on the front that you need to hold down before pressing the top for hot water. Don't remember the metal ever getting hot enough to hurt/scald either.

Re: "Sony wasn't forgetting its older-platform customers"

"Give it a year, and I'd say there'd be no more game releases for the PS3"

Re: Is it just me...

Personally I place the Bong articles in the 'brilliant content' category. Up there with Stob for me!

Each to their own though :)

Because you're not used to it. The rest of us have our own in-built Adblock now :)

Re: Yawn

Your TV is a webserver and a print server?

Re: Black Sheep is not a Peter Jackson film

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Gutted when I lost the disk :(

Re: Optional

SCART was the work of Satan.

USB's just one of his kid's school homework projects.

Re: The gist

Sounded to me like they were discussing breakfast, or last night's football!

Another day, another meteorite...
