My component cable has 5 connectors, the red, blue, green for video and the red and white for audio. Does that mean the red and white audio connectors are just the same as the red and white composite?

I need to extend my PS3's component audio to my sound system. Are there specific component audio extension cables that I can buy or will a regular composite extension cable work instead? Pretty much everything I google only compares the video quality of component vs composite, but not really...

I just purchased a surround sound system that I will be hooking up to my PS3, but my current component cable's audio and video are joined together a few inches from the connectors, which doesn't allow me to hook up both the video to the TV and the audio to the subwoofer. What would be a good...

Hi, I am wanting to get my Mother a simple point-and-shoot camera for her Birthday to replace her terrible phone camera. I am looking for something that is user-friendly, takes decent shots and can easily fit in a purse. I'm hoping to spend < $200. Any thoughts? Thanks =)

Hi. I'm thinking of buying a 7.1 headset. I've read that USB headsets (at least the surround sound ones) have built-in sound cards, would I need to buy a dedicated sound card to use a 3.5mm one? Are there any things to consider before purchasing one? The headset I have now has rather small...

She only uses Facebook to check status updates and share other recipes/crafts. What do you mean by "hands on"?

Hi all. My Mom is in need of a new PC as hers is becoming quite the relic. I upgraded the RAM last year from 256MB to 1GB, which was a noticeable improvement, but it's still an almost 10 year old Dell Dimension 2400 running on XP (which MS is dropping support for early next year) and upgrading...

Hi all, I am looking to connect my two RCA stereo speakers to my computer and possibly my existing PC speakers. What I would like to know is, what kind of cable would I need to connect the stereo speakers to my PC (I've seen one before, just can't remember) and can I use a PC audio-out splitter...

Just be conscious of not leaving your TV on when it's not being used and you'll be just fine. Sorry for the double post, but it wouldn't let me edit my post for some reason O.o

I just recently bought a Samsung 42" Plasma which has a "Game Mode" feature and I love it. Most newer Plasmas only really suffer Burn-in if you leave any still image in the same spot for hours on end, but even still it's not a real problem since they have Burn-in protection like, Pixel shifting...

If I were to get a Standard Definition Digital Terminal and upgrade my current analog basic cable signal to digital (no digital subscription packages) will using an HDMI cable provide an even better quality image? http://www.rogers.com/web/Rogers.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=cable_hardware_page

I redid the auto programing, but most of the DTV channels seem to be radio.

I'm really confused about all of this. I have an HDTV with basic cable and the image quality is grainy (due to low res signal being stretched to the bigger TV's resloution I would assume). Is there any way to clean the image quality up with just basic cable to at least match the quality of...
