Tutorials: Power-saving tips for your home theatre
Large high-definition televisions are voracious electricity consumers. Some 50-inch plasmas demand in excess of 400 watts of power when turned on. That's more than a good-size, modern refrigerator requires, though the refrigerator stays on 24/7, so it probably devours more energy overall. The other components of your home theater -- the DVR, the Blu-ray Disc player, and the separate surround-sound amplifier and speakers--have their own power demands. And the various parts of your home entertainment system suck juice even when they're "off," so that they can start up more quickly and so that you can turn them on via the remote control.

Though this is hardly surprising given the competition between Apple and Microsoft, it's a bummer for those that shop at Apple's popular iTunes online store. In steps MCETunes (various pricing, free demo), a plug-in for MCE that lets you access your iTunes media from within MCE's ten-foot interface (what you see when you're ten feet away an using a remote control).

Tutorials: Why do HD broadcasts on an HDTV still have sidebars?
Why do some HD channels still display those unsightly black bars on the side of the screen? If you're receiving HD over-the-air signals on a HDTV, shouldn't it fill the whole TV screen?
