Solomon, it's time to ditch the Web TV. What's the point in buying a nice, new laptop when you are surfing the web with ancient technology like Web TV? Even dial-up would be better than Web TV. Websites are not designed to be viewed on your TV set, lol.

Yeah I think I will ditch Dial up in the Fall. The Laptop is not as comfortable as MSNTV2.

Why can't this site just stay the same?-lol Are you competing with other TV Sites? Why can't S.O. can't stay the way it was in 2002? I never had any problems back then

2002 is then, 2006 is now. Get on with the program. You have seriously outdated service. High-speed is a lot cheaper these days than it was when high-speed was first introduced in the 90s.

You can get a VERY basic, bare-bones Dell computer for $300 with the mail-in rebate. I don't know about ya, but I think it sounds like a VERY good deal to me. And it'll *GASP* ACTUALLY work for you!! Oh my! What an amazing concept!

Webmasters have to upgrade to keep their users interested.

I'm not a big fan of the ticker myself, but if it helps in attracting more business, then I guess I'm all for it.

The reason why I don't my laptop is because I don't have call waiting if I connect to the web and my Internet service on the Laptop is free until January. Plus I have gotten use to the Bigger Screen which is my TV and it's hard to go to a smaller screen on Laptop

Yeah, I don't know where this place would be if they were still using the light bulbs instead of the tv's?

Make sure the Dell has a dvd burner because right now in the trading section Solomon is attmpting to trade tapes, while everyone else is trading dvds. That's 1975 technology. You send him a dvd and he sends you a tape. He doesn't listen to us there and I'm curious if he listens here.

And by the way Harvey, Most things on my list is hard to find from other traders so that's why lots of DVD traders just say-"What the hell I will just take the VHS and convert it"

Not a dvd recorder but a dvd burner. You can get a NEC 3550 which to me is the best made for less then 40 bucks, including shipping, and your up to date. Instead you want all to revert to your outdated vhs tapes. If I only had a penny for everyone who has told you no more tapes. A dollar a day and in month it's yours. With all the discussions in the trading section not one has come forward to say they trade tapes but you still offer tapes. It's like a meeting of the vegetarian society, and someone shows up from the cattleman's society advocating the benefits of eating meat. As the young lady said "it's 2006, be with it"
