Where/whenabouts was that? I just did a check on groups.google, but can't
find it. (Is it just me or has that site become unuseable?)
Incidentally, I did find it funny at times... initially it was funny. Then
it became not funny when it was said by everyone in every post. Then it
became funny again after months of mind-numbing, brainless monotony. Then it
became unfunny again. ...Although everybody's funny/unfunny clock-in moments
for it were different of course. :)

Me too. Still, I'd rather see 10 good posts per day instead of 600 crap
ones.
....not that there are 10 good posts nowadays -or most days ever. ;)
Things'll pick up a bit again in a few months is my prediction -when HD
comes out properly.
Maybe not in _this_ newsgroup -uk.media.dvd.hd ?
It'll be _years_ before it'll be bought en masse (if ever), so there'll be
plenty of time for that private/public bitchy, sniggering snobbery that we
know and love and remember so fondly. :)
-Kevin.
