Nah, I have a Samsung Blu-Ray player on my list. I was looking at those Aqua controller's with the serial port. Cant really spend any money until Breytins lip is fixed, don't know how long we'll be in a hotel or something. BTW Eric I have something thats in your price range...Anyway, to the point on hand. How long do you leave your lights off?
