I had never heard of Autoart models before yesterday... I was doing some work in a guys loft, and he had a load of them stacked up in there, all in box's, must have been between 20 - 30 of them all told. I had no idea they cost so much to be honest, or i may have had a closer look at them...

I just watched "Monoposto at Croft, September 2009 (Race 2)", loved the "i'll get you next time, Gadget!" style fist pumping after the contact, and the virtual execution at the finish!

Quote from Jakg :If you have a distorted analogue signal, the value at a point could be 0.65. Or 0.69. Or 0.63 - That could make a big difference.

In digital if it's 0.7, it's a safe guess it was a 1 - surely this reduces data loss massively?

Otherwise, why don't I spend £500 on an ethernet cable for my PC if it makes my internet look better?

I'm perhaps not going to be able to word this correctly, or use the correct terms, but here go's...

Doesn't data transfer through Cat5e just throw away error's though? Like if a bit/byte has an error (through interference or whatever) when it reaches the destination machine, it's disregarded and it try's again?

Where as with a digital video/audio interconnect, if there's an error caused by interference while you're watching a movie, you have to view/hear that error. Or else if it worked the same way as ethernet, then you'd end up with a movie that looks like it's being streamed and poorly buffered (worse case senario of course...)

Does this game have a single player mode? or only co-op?
I'm looking for a Modern Warfare 2 alternative, but i prefer single player/offline shooters

AKAIK if your monitor supports a horizontal scan rate of 15.625khz then it's possible to DIY yourself a cable up to do it, but if not then i think you're out of luck...

Quote from Crashgate3 :What if one put a foot over the edge to get out? I suppose the easiest way out for the electricity would still be through the wire - it would only zap someone if the only way out was through a person or the water (in which case it would choose the person).

There's obviously ways that you could still get a shock whilst in that situation, i'm in no way saying it's safe , just it's highly unlikely to cause anyone a problem.
It's still stupid though

It's good, but it's a major pearoast...


EDIT: Anyway, it wouldn't be a problem if it did fall in the water, they're sitting in a nice PVC pool, no-where for the electricity to go, except for back into the extension lead, causing a short. No problem...

Quote from Crashgate3 :Ugh.. Tennant's Super...

It tastes like cat-turds dissolved in petrol.

I dissagree, IMO it tastes like drinking piss through a sock...

Quote from IlGuercio :You can't enjoy a beer in its can.
It just has another(bad)taste.
Respect its serving temperature and pour it into a dedicated glass

Whilst i'd normally agree with you there, i was in the middle of a crowded field with thousands of tents, and living out of one myself, i enjoyed that straight out of the can...

Lol, i assumed it was tbh but didn't like to point it out.
My friend has that TV, i have the series 4 version - LE46M87BDX

Well unfortunately, when things like this are multi purpose, compromises have to be made...
If that setup were mine, i would remove the tall section of the desk which the TV is stood on, and put the TV on the main part of the desk. You should still be able to fit your SkyHD box to the side and underneath of the TV, then you just have the inconvenient part of removing and replacing the wheel when you switch from tv/movie watching back to racing and vice versa.
You are getting the best possible of both worlds with that solution, but unfortunately it's not perfect...

EDIT: Is that a series 5 btw?

It isn't strange that you had to change your FOV, you now have a screen thats more than 4 tmes bigger than your last one, still sitting right next to your face!
Think of the screen being a window into the world of LFS, rather than a screen showing EVERYTHING, now you have a bigger window you're sitting right next to, you of course have a bigger FOV, so the in game settings should reflect that.

EDIT: And i agree that the screen seems too high to give a natural experience...
