I decided I am going to get one.

Because for a simple $150.... watching my DVDs and TVDVDs will be a whole new experience.

Def. go for it. If you don't feel like splurging, a Memorex should do it for you. That's what my dad got. :D

Definitely get one. Especially with tv show dvds, with episodes shorter than full length movies, it comes in handy passing time when you're travelling or on your lunch hour at work.

thats probably my biggest incentive (i know, i spelled it wrong)
Im going to buy one for about $200.

I was originally going to get a laptop, but with my brother going to college.... Im basically the only one that will be using the family computer.

So.... I save about $800 this way.

Yeah...and they're smaller and easier to carry around than a laptop. My laptop weighs 7 lbs. Ugh.

Thanks for the input.
I just got one about an hour and a half ago.

Right now.... Im watching the pilot of Cheers and talking to you schmucks.




(of course.... no offense to anyone that actually is a schmuck. And to all of you who aren't shmucks.... you're a schmuck.

Mintek.
$200 at Best Buy.
But I had $45 store credit, so I only had to pay something like $168.
