Yesterday I made a passing reference to Sarah Palin in this space and got eight responses, six of them bizarrely hostile. Thank you. You don’t know how much that meant to me. I didn’t think anyone read the introductions.
1. You’ll shoot some gorgeous high-definition video this summer if you pick up the Canon Vixia HG20. It records in 1920-by-1080 full HD resolution and offers a 12X optical zoom. You don’t even need to worry about storage cards, since it saves to a 60GB internal drive. Naturally, it includes image stabilization and a variety of shooting modes. J&R has it for $599 with free shipping.
2. With monitor prices this low, you might want to get an extra one so you can line them up and have a super-wide viewing experience at your desk. Buy.com is selling the Samsung 2033SW 20-inch widescreen LCD monitor for $153.99 (after $20 mail-in rebate) and that’s with free shipping. It has a piano black finish that should enhance any office.
3. Your Xbox gaming console becomes a DVD player in one step when you buy the Xbox DVD Playback kit from Buy.com. It’s going for $5.19, including shipping. The kit includes a remote and a sensor. Plug in the sensor and you’re ready to start watching.
