Now, now guys. I've actually just been sitting back collecting names to ban. ;)

Special Dispensation from Neobond to ban all you naysayers. ;)

On a real note. Was spending the evening with my Significant other shopping for a new TV. Damn I wish I was joking. :: LOL ::

The new one should withstand a puck thrown at it according to the salesman.

You have no idea how cool this thing is. :) I think out the door I ended up spending about $4,200 with the converters and all that but it's a hell of an upgrade from my 32" one. :) Funny thing is, with the converter is does HDTV with no problems, odd they would say it doesn't.

As for my outlook on the Wings? Check my editorial at the begining of this thread. ;)

I've discussed the sticky possbility with an Admin, they didn't think so because Hockey isn't entirely universal. So, we'll just keep it sticky with posts and if things continue on, I'll revisit the issue. :)

About the TV, just finished watching Red Planet on Sci-Fi...

DAMN this thing is nice. ;)

Thinking about moving the iMac in there and hooking it up to the VGA port. ;)

:laugh: haha, i'm actually surprised this thread is already 14 pages. good to see so many hockey fans on neowin. i always thought americans barely noticed hockey existed but this is proving me wrong. up here in canada hockey means so much to us, i would say even more than baseball to americans. :p we're STILL celebrating our olympic gold medal win. lol, u can get dvd's of it in cereal. but we're happy to share the great canadian game with u. eh?

they played awesome tonight but the officiating still sucked... they called way too many penalties

The officiating did suck for both games. Hopefully the refs get the memo that hockey is a contact sport. Cloutier really saved your guy's butt in the 3rd period. Hopefully the refs will let both teams play the rest of the series. Go blues!!!

My question is...

When has the officiating in the NHL NOT sucked. :p

It's a trend lately, the ref's must be paid by the Whistle Blow. :p

They blow it once, they get 500 bucks. Twice, 1000... and so on.

I mean, you DON'T call too many men on the ice in the third period of a PLAYOFF game.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.

      Fixing things? Have you ever tried linux? Everything works out of the box nowadays in most common hardware. This includes Wifi and Bluetooth. If anything, if they return back to windows is because they haven't found an equivalent program which often used on windows.
