The Sainsbury's one here in the UK has to be one of the better ones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuRn2S7iPNU N.B.

I learned something new today. Those are humbugs, eh? Looks like hard candies. If you haven't had your fill of commercials, Tv's Hallmark Channel is showing nothing but Christmas movies at night. I used to love seeing dept. stores all decorated up for Christmas. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

The 6th of December will mark one year since I last watched TV. Can't say I missed it and certainly not the adverts!! |

Oh well, phooey. I love tv. The mute button comes in handy for commercials, and there's lots of good stuff on relatively commercial-free public tv. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

My PC could have a TV tuner card in it, but the PC can't power it, since the old motherboard power circuitry is damaged and the pci card is useless here since everything is digital here and not analog anymore.

What about this super cruncher you are building Vic? It's in the My Computer Builds thread, I'm mostly done with building that, and getting parts for it, I explain more in the thread, since I don't want to go OT here too much. Ok, I get what you mean Chris S(2), neither the EVGA X79 Classified or the Asus Rampage IV Extreme has even 1 PCI slot, so the TV tuner can't be used there.

This is a bit over the top. But I have seen the commercial. GE’s New Café Fridge Has A Built-In Keurig Machine At The Door |

Yeah, most drip coffee makers are made to last for the warranty time period, afterwards, you're expected to buy a new one and trash the old one, Me I have a GE percolator, it's about 30-50 years old, works perfectly, outside of a loose nut that needs tightening in the electric cord socket, the percolator is made mostly of metal, except for the top and the handle, which are plastic.
