Is it possible to list all the closed threads at the end of the buying and selling section so that it`s going to be more clearly or is that a mission impossible ?

Does anyone know if I can play dvds from the UK (region 1) on my year old Dell laptop bought & owned here in the US (region 2)?

^You'll need to run this
http://www.dkszone.net/find-region-code-dvd-drive-driveinfo
to find out if your drive is region protected.
If it is, search your drive model & see if there's a firmware hack to make it region free.

Thanks, MOD.  Looks like I can get that box set of The Inbetweeners after all.

As one who hails from la belle province, it's hard to pledge allegiance to a particular MLB team, for several reasons: 1. since our 'Spos were unceremoniously yanked from underneath us by Bud, we've been typically bitter about the subject of baseball in general and 2. the teams we do latch on to, their fans have a hard time accepting us and thus fail to truly acknowledge our presence.

That being said, I've been doing my best to follow the BoSox since '04–tough to do since we are inundated with coverage of the Blue Jays. However, I've been looking for a National league team to follow so as to sufficiently sate my baseball needs.

Therefore, I need permission from San Fran natives to commence my pursuit towards attaining the status of fan of the San Francisco Giants.

I know it looks like bandwagon jumping since they took the ship last year, but it has mostly to do with my deep interest in Vogelsong after learning his story on the Showtime original series The Franchise. As far as overcoming obstacles within the realm of sports, the dude's a modern inspiration. Furthermore, it's a storied franchise that has a colourful history which will make for an interesting read.

So, thumbs up or down?

Download DVDFab Passkey - you just run it and you can play ALL DVDs. It's a wondreous little program!..

Also: it's the other way around… UK = reg2, US = reg1.

@Shoreman:

bandwagon jumping

Just think back to when the Expos were good:

And then become a Cubs fan.

I'll leave you with this and await Lando's response:

if you were only allowed three items from Iron Heart Fall/Winter 2011/2012, what would they be?

i'm on a tight budget, so here are my choices from what i have spied:

think i will be getting:

damn 3 choices seem so limited.  so what would you get?

[jacoavlu]

no wabash?
no cord?
no IHD-01?

gotta do some looking if I'm to answer…

[madmonday]

i scored a flathead wabash so i'm good with dots.

cord isn't my thing & i would feel way retro if i put on cord anything.

not a fan of IHD-01. it's nice but i have my mister freedom deck that i'm rocking out with.

to be honest i'm look at my three choices & my closet & think they are the best pick-ups for me in relation to what i already have.

i was allowed to come of injured reserve if i go easy    so i'm going easy 

[jacoavlu]

IHD-01 is this
