Eventually though, Gardens Point became too small to house a real university so they moved to St Lucia and now they have a multitude of campuses all over the place. So do QUT. My name is Rob.

Thanks Paul... They're way better quality than what I'd have gotten with the POS 75-300...  No sweat! Hmmmm...methinks you have a 'thing' for one of the models

Location: 4152 More info | Mat Fitzsimmons wrote in post #5089401 Yeah  I kinda came to the conclusion that I'd wait till the end of the year and see what's around then. I'd want something primarily for movies, but Lucille (much better half) would also like to be able to slideshow photos on it too (I guess I'd build a little HTPC), and the brightness of the room is also a factor (LCDs are better in bright rooms). It all became a bit to much for me I think I'll end up with a Kuro though. I concur David
