Thanks, Tom! That was what I figured, using the mathematical formula of General Impression + Making It Up. Possibly I'm going to PCRichard tomorrow. Too bad that link says it's 43 lbs, which is too heavy to carry, I think.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For anyone in a similar but not identical situation, I just came across this CNET page which tells you the effective diagonal for watching widescreen on a normal TV or 4:3 on a widescreen TV. [link]

Hey, the ipod video can't pump video via 3.55mm to composite, can it?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
So I was moving wires around behind me computer, and when I hooked everything up, my M-Audio monitors suddenly have a hum that wasn't there before. I tried swapping out all the speaker cables, and I tried plugging in the power in a different outlet that I know is on a different circuit, to no avail. I also can't turn on or off the speakers without getting a loud pop.
I'm at a loss as to what else to try. I have a suspicion that the expensive speakers I bought are now ruined.

I swear WMM always has some backwards bug.
That's not a bug. .mov is QuickTime's format, not one of the WMM supported ones.

Tom, try unplugging your USB audio interface and/or powering down your computer (not just restarting). I dunno if it's some sound buzz buffer, but I know every once in awhile my cheap-o M-audio USB interface will do that if I jiggle the cables just wrong.

They're not USB speakers. And I get the hum even when they're not plugged into my computer.

Hmmmm, I suspect you've got the smaller version of my M-Audio BX-8's. How loud is the buzz?

could the audio feeds to the speakers be run with some power or data lines that are inducting into the speaker audio?
