What happens when Matsushita starts making Pioneer panels, as well? Will there be TWO people in white coats fighting to see who gets the good ones?

A long time ago, it was written.... This is interesting, the global plamsa market is worth $10bln for 2008 and panasonic( which is he base of the bv4 )have a substantial slice of that. Please explain the procedure that Bang &Olufsen use when 'selecting only the top2% of panels in a factory that produces many millions of units a year?? do they

I also appreciate BM Link. I installed the new Leopard version on a machine today. It worked well, except that >> skips a large number of albums, instead of just one. Could this be due to the owner having a large external hard drive with about 1500 albums on it, or is this an error? I also found that the BS9000/Beo4 would not start iTunes from

"I think I'm going to retire. Hang my jersey from the rafters. " From what I read it's not the jersey that would be hanging.

match the serial number on the box with the one on the tv and you will know who mixed them. Demo, perhaps?

I won't speak to the 3200, but the BeoSound 4 allows you to rip your CD's to computer at the rate you choose, then copy to the SD card. I use CDex to process, the LAME encoder setting, at 192 compression.

I can handle a normal 50" plasma by myself, but won't touch a BV7-40 without competent help. The system is "back-heavy" and you cannot allow the glass to bear the weight, which means the aluminum frame will soon start digging into both pair of hands. Then you have to place it lovingly on whichever stand you bought. And I sure don't

My recommendation for out of town sales is drop ship to the customer's home and bring in staff to set it up. There is less shipping risk and cost. I agree with the "major feats", plus "2 reasonably stout people lifting and removing carefully from the box so as not to damage the glass and immediately placing it on the stand of choice"

You never know who you're talking to on this board. Nor often who you are listening to..... bring back the sheep.
