    Xbox360 HDMI audio question

    Strange computer issue

    I just discovered an issue with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and Windows Mobile 6.1. I noticed some dates in March were off on my and my wifes smartphones.

    Samsung TV overscan problem

    Have a Samsung HL-T4675S 46" DLP TV that seems to have some significant overscan. I really notice it on the picture from my Dish 622 on HDMI input.
