Most of the time, I watch videos in a corner of my screen tucked away running in the background as I do other stuff. Prefered player is Xine in Mac amd Linux, haven't decided on a good player for windows yet. WMP, VLC for windows, and Mplayer for windows, all dissappoint me.
Opinion writing is a completey different matter, half the screen is the video, the other is the opinion page. I watch the video several times, each time focusing only on the point I'm writing about. Most videos take several passes like this.

I just found one of those LCD units that are used on an overhead projector, and the projector that a local school was throwing out. Cleaned up the projector and hooked the LCD to my video card TV out, now I have big screen
free. Sound is on my Altec Lansing 5.1 system. I feel like I'm in the big time now, I have a bigger screen than my son's 62 inch.

Where did you say I'm going?.... And what am I doing in a handbasket?
