Jan 21, 2004 -- Home theater systems and Tivo on your laptop
Clark has been reading stories about the Consumer Electronics show held recently in Las Vegas. Apparently, there was a sideshow for people who buy ultra high-end audio systems. These are customized for your home and cost in the six-figure range. One reporter went to this show with an MP3 player to find out how the music would sound on his player. Turns out that it sounded just fine. So, there is no need to spend a fortune on these systems, when the bare minimum would do just fine. Clark paid $249 for his and it includes everything he needs to create a great system.
In other technology news, Tivo has come up with a new device that allows you to transfer files from your Tivo to your laptop computer. Its called Tivo To Go. What you do is download the show into the device, which then plugs into the USB port on your computer and you can play it there. This new technology is all over. Its possible to watch shows through your eye glasses, for example. Is that a problem waiting to happen or what? Clark recommends that you buy current technology, not state-of-the-art products.
