Why do people ask TV questions in a newsgroup that is clearly marked for Windows XP?

My question is why MVPs like you get your panties all up in a twist when someone posts something you consider to be off topic. Lighten up, dude. Alias

I don't know whether they're weaker, but they are more fragile. A poor-quality analog signal will result in snow or other picture problems, but the result will still be watchable. The same amount of degradation in a digital broadcast will reduce the picture to an unwatchable mosaic. -- Tim Slattery MS MVP(Shell/User) Slattery_T@bls.gov http://members.cox.net/slatteryt
