Which type of TV would you choose.

I am on the hunt for a TV or Projector for my Home Theater room project.  With the options I have there is just too much avail to decide and I have been reading AVS Forums but there is just so much info that it would take years to read.  I have atleast narrowed down my choices for the most part.
1. Panasonice Projector AE3000 or 4000 (I really wish Best Buy would carry this model).
2. Mistubishi 73837 or 82837 DLP  (if I can find one although they have color wheel problems)
3. Samsung LED/LCD 3D but its not big enough
4. Samsung LED/LCD non-3d also not big enough
5.Samsung Plasma 58B560,63b590,58b860
6.Panasonic Plasma 58V10,65S1
Still waiting for LG models to come out as they were the best looking and the best PQ out of all the TV's at CES especially the 3D.

Projectors are awesome if you have the space to make full use of it.
There are still some cases where, given sufficient room, I would use my 640x480 Sharp XG-E660U over my 46" 1080p AQUOS - although none in the past few years as my apartment doesn't have any places that allow the projector to reach its full potential.
That said projectors that would obliterate the old Sharp are so cheap nowadays I'd probably just buy a new one rather than use the old Sharp. 
*disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

  • Which of these macs would you choose for video editing?

    The main difference is the MBP has an Serial ATA drive, and the Air has a Flash drive.  Also the MPB has 2.9Ghz, and the Air has only 2.0Ghz.  Which one would you pick for editing with Final Cut Pro X? (Also curious which one you would pick even if video editing wasn't a concern for you, thanks!)

    Apple fools a lot of people with that. The 13" is really a MacBook and not a "Pro" machine.
    The best machine for video editing depends upon what your going to do, full on production or casual home stuff.
    A 15" MacBook Pro and a iMac for the casual lightweight stuff and iMove can do the job.
    The new MacPro coming out for the heavy duty stuff.
    The industry seems to be moving away from Final Cut Pro X as it's been consumerized or something, lacking needed features and moving towards Avid on powerful Mac's or Windows 7 towers.

    So perhaps a mix of Avid and Final Cut Pro X if your serious about furthering your career.

  • Some kinds of enhancement... Which would you choose?

    Hi all.
    There are some kinds of enhancement in SAP.
    (EXIT, BADI, OPEN-FI, Enhancement spot  ...etc)
    If there are some kinds of enhancement match your purpose, which do you choose?
    For example, I'm trying to enhance in MM01.
    EXIT: MGA00001
    BADI: BADI_MATERIAL_REF
    Both of enhancement can be function.
    I wonder which is the best...
    Which would you choose?
    and What is the reason?
    thanks.

    it depends on your requirement.i personally believe in BADI as it include less coding with promising results
    there is no such answer which is better it depends on your way of coding or in which you feel comfortable.
    For difference beteen BADi/Exit you may search in SCN i'm sure you will get many many examples.i found one for you.

  • Which type of fish are you?

    So me and my wife have this endless conversation about working for a company. Sometimes we agree and sometimes not so I figured i'll post it here and see what you guys think. So assuming most of us here, if not all of us are in the IT field. Some are managers, some are more technical but all share the same goal: to do our best regardless to where we are and get as high as we can. The question is, in what type of environment would you like this to happen with one simple idea: the smaller the environment, the faster you will grow.For example: If you're an IT Manager for a non-tech company (let's say a bank, a law firm, a non-profit org.) you are most likely to be in a high management position and the person who everyone needs and wants. The company is really depended on you (for good and bad) and replacing you will be a big process since...

    Against my better judgement I installed a demo of SolarWinds IPAM on our VMware vCenter server (Server 2012 R2, physical server). It's a web-app and uses SQL so I thought it might conflict with vCenter, but I took the risk and now I'm paying for it. I completely uninstalled all Solarwinds programs and SQL 2008 R2 (still have SQL 2012, as I did originally), but I cannot start the VMware vCenter services that run vCenter (vctomcat & vpxd). Also, I got an error twice that IIS is not installed, even though it *is* installed. I have already removed SQL Express (2k8) as a dependent service and "Protected Storage" was not listed (I'm referencing this). The error I get when I try to start the VPXD service now is:

  • Which casing would you choose???

    Hi all, I'm thinkin of gettin a casing for my 3rd gen nano. After browsin' through the Apple store, found 2 which I really like: Belkin Remix Acrylic Case and the Belkin leather folio.
    Here are the links for yoou guys to have a look: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?n=ipodn ano3&fnode=home/shopipod/ipodaccessories/cases&nplm=TP799LL/A&mco=EB91F8EC (Belkin Remix Acrylic Case)
    and Belkin leather folio: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?n=ipodn ano3&fnode=home/shopipod/ipodaccessories/cases&nplm=TP791LL/A&mco=497D89F1
    I can't seem to decide on which one to get!! So, I'd like to ask all of you, especially those who have either one of the casings, which one would you get for me?
    Also, the store is in the States but I stay in Singapore, would I still be able to purchase it, and what is the price for the casings in Singapore dollars? The Apple online Singapore store doesn't seem to have the leather folio.

    Hey, hopefully I can offer a suggestion...
    Those two cases are quite different from each other. One is a leather folio with a clasp and the other is a clear case. You first have to decide which type of case you want.
    I purchased the exact same Belkin folio for my wife, but in the white+orange colour. She loves it. She likes to put her iPod on shuffle and just let it play while she's on the bus and exercising.
    If you are the type of person who changes songs a lot, looks at photos, and watches video, the folio might not be the best, because you are constantly having the clasp open.
    Another thing about the Belkin folio is that the pictures are deceiving: the plastic shield doesn't actually cover the clickwheel, only the screen. It's a bit misleading and I was disappointed when my wife opened it and we found that out. Also, the top and bottom the iPod aren't completely covered, so in time it could get scratched.
    I still like the case though, as it offers nice protection for the most part, and looks really nice.
    The other case is basically a plastic skin. If you like that look and feel, then maybe it'd be for you!
    Hope this helps,
    Matt

  • Which server OS would you choose?

    Hi,
    To choose the better server for running Jdev 11.1.1.5 projects, which one would you prefer?
    Win 08 server
    Oracle Linux 5.7
    Many Thanks & Best Regards,
    HuaMin

    HuaMin,
    I'd chose an OS that:
    a). Is officially supported
    b). You and/or your company has experience with and is comfortable supporting and tuning
    As much as Windows tends to be maligned, if you and your company are well experienced in running Windows servers, then by all means, use Windows. Myself, I'd prefer Linux, but that's because I have more experience in running Linux servers in production.

  • Which combination of graphics cards would you choose?

    I have a minor dilemma. Due to some strange circumstances I ended up with 2 GeForce 8800 GT's and 1 Radeon X1900 XT.
    I use a 30" monitor and 2 additional 20" monitors, thus the need for 2 cards. I certainly don't need 3, and frankly, I don't think the mac pro would handle a 3rd high power card very well in the 3rd or 4th slot anyway.
    So now the decision is:
    1) Dual GeForce 8800 GT's or
    2) 1 GeForce 8800 GT and 1 Radeon X1900 XT
    It seems that for gaming there is no question the 8800 GT is better, but the X1900 XT is better for core image performance. What I need to figure out is if core image performance matters at all for any of the programs I use. These programs are used on a daily basis and are usually all open at the same time:
    Adobe PhotoShop CS3
    Adobe Illustrator CS3
    Adobe LightRoom 2 or Bridge CS3 depending
    Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
    Microsoft Entourage
    Microsoft Remote Desktop
    Safari
    iTunes
    Cyberduck
    About a million finder windows (OK, 5-10)
    (and occasionally) Fusion with Windows XP to test things in Internet Explorer 7
    Now, as far as I know, the only real programs that take advantage of core image (or would be slowed down by an 8800 GT) are Apple's Pro Apps like Final Cut Pro, Aperture, etc. I use a different machine for Final Cut Pro and I ditched Aperture for LightRoom so I basically don't use any "Pro Apps" on this machine now.
    Do you think I would even notice a difference while working using the 8800 vs the 1900? If not, would it just make sense to go with the Dual 8800's? They're smaller than the 1900, use less power, and run cooler. If someone knows for sure if Adobe CS3 apps run poorly on the 8800 that would probably make the decision for me.
    Thanks!

    You wish I said that I read the benchmarks at barefeats even though I very clearly said:
    "It seems that for gaming there is no question the 8800 GT is better, but the X1900 XT is better for core image performance. What I need to figure out is if core image performance matters at all for any of the programs I use."
    Why, after reading that, would you post benchmarks that tell me the 8800 is better for gaming and the 1900 is better for core image. I don't really understand...
    Then you went on to talk about ATI 2600's and 3870's so I'm starting to think that maybe you just didn't read my post... I'm not considering a 2600 or a 3870. I tried to explain in my post very clearly that I am in possession of:
    2 x 8800 GT's
    1 x X1900 XT
    Of those 3 cards, which 2 would you put in your computer if you ran the programs I listed above.
    Am I really that unclear?
    As for your choice of going with a 2600 and a 3870 -- even though that wasn't one of the options and I don't have either of those cards in my possession -- I wouldn't put the 2600 in my computer just because of the noise. The 3870 seems like a great card (almost as good for gaming as the 8800 and amazing core image performance) but I'm not going to go spend $200+ when I have 3 cards sitting on my desk right now that I can use for free. The X1900 was too loud for me and I ended up modifying it with an Arctic Cooling silent kit, and from what I've read the 2600 is even louder than the X1900.

  • Which one of these 12volt/car charger for MacBook Pro would you choose..???

    Hi everyone.
    I am looking for a suitable 12volt/car charger, so i can charge my brand new MacBook Pro directly from our caravan batteries via a car/12 volt socket. I dont want to use a inverter, as it draws unnecessary power from the vans batteries.
    I am being cautious as I don't want to use a product that is not 100% compatible here in Australia and might void the warranty in any way.
    I can not find anything suitable manufactured by Apple but I have found many 3rd party alternatives, ranging from approx $50 up to a couple of hundred.

  • Which of these solutions would you recommend?

    while trying to create a login system using JSP, I ran into several tutorials, and tried creating one by using java beans to keep track of the session.
    The bean stores the username by using setUserID(String userID), and also sets a certain variable to true if the user is logged in.
    To create different levels or types of users, and add more functionality to this login system, I believe I could add more properties to determine the level and other necessary information (with information taken from a database), and simply use a beanid.getProperty() to check for the information I need for example.
    I know that another way and the more common way to create a login system while securing other pages on the website, is to use session tracking and the session variable to set different values, etc... and keep track of the user.
    Now my question is, which one of these 2 solutions would you recommend? Which one do you believe to be more secure?
    Thanks.

    Arent both essentially the same? In the first, you set all properties in a single bean object and bind that object to the session. In the second, you bind each property individually to the session. So there is nothing to choose 'security' wise between the two options. Security, I believe, has nothing to do with how you track the user's session. Usage of SSL for example is a security technique.
    Having said that, if we confine your question to which is a better option for session management per se, I would favour the first (a single bean). I am not a great fan of a bloated session object though. You can always query necessary info from the db using this id rather than storing it in the session.
    Note you neednt set a variable to indicate that the user has logged in. The presence of the UserBean is sufficient to indicate the logged in status (assuming that you create such a bean only on successful login).
    Hope this is useful to you.

  • What would you choose?

      If for some reason that I can't be bothered to think of, you were only allowed to keep one device or gadget, what would it be? For the purposes of this I'm not including wi-fi routers or hubs, you get to keep them, so the internet is still available.  For me, I think it would be my Kindle. Yes, I would miss my Chromebook, but there was a long time in my life where I lived without the 'net. Besides, I can still access it on my Kindle but I wouldn't want to do our monthly grocery shop on it as it's one of the original Kindles with the keyboard, so not the best for the 'net.  I would definitely miss the TV of course, but if I was given a choice between books & TV I would always choose books.  I would also miss our breadmaker as it makes awesome bread & jam. So, have a good think about all your gadgets around the house, from the rechargable vacuum cleaner to the ipad, & make a decision. Please make it interesting by giving reasons. Thanks.

  • Which type of apps can you virtualize

    Hello,
    I'm new to ZAV, and wants to know which type of applications you can virtualize and which type not, and why.
    if you take for example adobe reader, how is it possible to associate the file extension .pdf to that file and how is the integration with internet explorer . Are that things working with ZAV?, because everything is in 1 executable.
    I hope someone can explain me this.

    Allright so you don't use the whole adminstudio suite.. you can a lot with it, but probably ZAV is enough for most of the things. That's great.
    I'm doing monitor instead of snapshot, because it's better to "monitor" the installation process instead the "before" "after" solution. but ok not interesting.
    Ofcourse i'm not re-package an msi again. Always use the Tuner or ORCA or ZCM builtin Properties (very handy). You can say 90% of the apps are msi's. But not for our software vendors. I'm working on local government and much software are old old setups/installers. Very annoying. I think 10% of our software is MSI, So i have to do it by myself.
    But making MSI's is not my core-business on my work. I'm System Engineer, so doing everything and have to know things about everything :S.
    So i'm also user very often (if possible) the built in silent commandline paramenters. As example for Inno Setups i record the answer file. Or use a simple Setup.exe /s and afterward i'm removing the shortcuts with zcm "file removal" .
    And ok, the are not in MSI format, but it works!, And since there is not a standard in how setups are working, or vendors don't create the msi for me, i have todo what's working.
    But dandirk, Do you also have alluser problems with ZAV? or does the whole problem never exists because it's 1 executable, and for each user it's creating an sandbox.
    Do you have experience with creating the sandbox on a network share.. For example on the Homedirectory. We are not using roaming profiles, so if i put it in the userprofile it's gone after re-imaging.
    Originally Posted by dandirk

    Though importing msi is not a bad thing to try if you have problems with the snap.
    If you are doing "monitor" captures with installshield often, you are probably missing something. 90% of apps are msi now a days. Installshield should give you a warning that an install is already an msi when you start your monitor. If an app is already an msi, you DO NOT want to remonitor/snap it with installshield. Its much better to extract the msi (if needed) and use tuner or installshield to create a MST.

  • Which 256 flash player would you buy-Muvo tx fm or muvo sl

    Except for their appearance these players seem so similar. I already own a zen xtra but want a light flash player for outside activities to carry with me.some user opinions would be greatly appreciated thanks matt

    Jk why would you go with a triple a battery player?Is it because you can just take battery out when not using it. I was having second thoughts about the slim battery and wondered if it had same peculiarity as my zen xtra battery that i need to keep charged or it might nor recharge after a period of idle time. I only need a 256 since taking a few cds of music with me is all that i need this flash player for. I might not use it every day. Im thinking of permanently putting my zen xtra in a play dock that I heard this weekend and loved the sound from it.My flash player would be just for on the go activities and i would change the contents as needed..
