    Thoughts on Blu-Ray?

    Not too sure where to post this, but this seemed best... Anyway, what are peoples' thoughts on blu-ray technology (currently only put out by Sony, as far as I know)? Sony just started pre-orders for a blu-ray reader/player console with remote. Apparently SL holds up to 25GB and DL up to 50GB...

    need quick help with inspiron 1100

    So I went tot he library today to work on a project, and went to boot up my trusty old lappy when *gasp* it wouldn't start up.
