I guess I got lucky with my wife then.When I was out shopping for a new amp some time ago I was dead set on a Rotel RB1070.When it was time to go get it my wife came along.While at the store she said why don't you just get that bigger amp over here (the RB1080) of course I told her she was right and went ahead and got it.

If everyone knew how easy it really is to build one nowadays Dell would be in trouble.



No kidding. Trust me on this -- if I can do it, anyone can do it.

I believe there is a certain price point (maybe it's your mom just looking for Internet access and nothing else) where it does make sense to just buy the $299 off-the-shelf model. But for anything else, a Frankenstein is the way to go. It's cheaper, and you learn how to build/repair/replace stuff later on down the road.

She's your girlfriend, not your wife!! You can't let her start controlling your finances already. You're doomed if you ever tie the knot.

Hmmph. I think that statement's applicable regardless of a particular individual's behavior.

im about to blow a gasket!! i have been on the phone for and hour and a half trying to cancel this damn thing. for starters they are all from India. they transfered me to the cancelation department and a pharmaceutical company picked up the phone!! lol. Then I called back and they gave me a different number to try and the girl said, "im sure this will work sir". Well guess what, that number is no longer in service. As of right now I have been on hold for 10 minutes.

This seems like Deja-vu, but does she have a sister?
