My system is a hodge podge of stuff from over the years. When I used to work at the StereoShop in Greensburg, I was able to try out new stuff often. Now I have a Yamaha receiver, Pioneer DVD player, Cerwin Vega front speakers, Infinity rear speakers, Boston center channel, and the paradigm sub. Now this stuff is all about 10 yrs old & is much bigger than it needs to be. I love the Yamaha receiiver, but the center channel is acting up & it is not a 5.1 or 7.1 receiver. I am going to update to a new 7.1 Yamaha, but I dunno on the speakers, yet. I’ve always wanted Klipsch speakers, so now might be the time for them. I also want to get a quality Blue Ray disc player to take advantage of the 1080p.

I hear ya, I picked mine up the same way while working at Audio Communications. I knew I was on the way out the door and just wanted to grab the biggest and badest I could afford. So my rears are Bookshelf sized “atoms” hanging on the wall, the Center channel is twice the size I need and the fronts are “Legends” towers and both house a 10" sub mated to an atom speaker. Everything is close to 7 years old with a higher end Sony ES receiver - the only thing I would upgrade is the reciever but hate to put the money out while it’s working. I can’t swallow buying a Blue ray yet, I’ve got too many DVD’s and don’t feel like starting over with a new format!

I’ve heard good things about the Klipsch, and my father in-law just redid his system with a 60" wall mount and a really nice Yamaha 7.1, forget the name of the speakers but it is a really well worked out system.

So for a little bit bigger keys you give up 512mb more of ram, 12gb of SSD storage space (on a faster setup), about 4 hours of extra battery life and you have to deal with touch-pad buttons on either side of the pad itself.

I hate all the crap that’s being put out by the brand PC manufacturers. Asus had it right, has it right and will continue to do so. They started the netbook trend, and will end it. Eee 901/1000 \> \* at this point.

Perhaps because there is not a ring to light up on the ps3?

I know plenty of ps3’s that have stopped working, my buddys spit games back out at him when he inserted them for example.

When theres twice as many units sold, id expect to hear of more problems… haha.
