klingon 10 Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 It would be ok if tv was actually decent... Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I don't have TV in my room in Tokyo. So, I was thinking to buy a laptop with TV. But I didn't need TV for 2years and will not need it. So, I decided to buy a good deal Toshiba dynabook without TV. If I can watch Satellite TV channels, MTV, movies, I may buy it. Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 It's not just tv though, is it. I am not interested in brand-name computers, but I suppose what they are doing is trying to make a "computer" that acts as a tv, dvd/video file player, digital video recorder, music center, game machine, web viewer, digital photo viewer, ... but doesn't look so out of place (ahem) in your living room. I would imagine that the design is going to be really naff, but the functionality sounds great. Lots of those things are better done from a sofa in the living/tv room than at a computer desk. For geeks, this is nothing new, and you can get fanless mini PC compatibles that plug into your tv and do all of the above. I think you can do quite a lot even with a hacked Xbox.

Error404 0 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Where do we get those hacked xboxs? Anywhere to, hush, buy them? Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 3 months ago and id have hacked one for you. you can buy them online from hong kong and so on, search the web. you can even buy the necessary bits for it from yahoo auctions, xbox is so small in japan that the cops havent caught on to it and stopped yahoo auctions from selling that stuff here. you could probably get the full hacked system from there.
