So, what purchase do you regret the most?
I regret buying my US GC. I sold it on eBay a month ago for about 50% of it's original price. Painful.

You used to love your XBox.
As for this other girl, well she became one of my best friends and i constantly put her down because she is such a whiny little brat. Wasted £50.
And Mary if you're reading this... sorry you're not really a whiny little brat.
Talking of 24 I better go watch it.
Night all.

I bought a cheap 'gold plated' one from Dixons, allows up to five connections into the one socket on the TV - my picture and sound quality is just as high!
Infact, I've got that scart block connected to a SoundStation 3, then to my TV!
No loss in picture quality at all.

Why do you need a seperate telly for your X-Box, can't you just switch scart leads around?
I have my X-Box/PS2/GC/DC/MegaDrive and DVD Player, all in the same room. I use the same telly for them all, I just switch cables around a lot.But I did see a scart lead adaptor in ASDA for just £15 which I'll pick up soon.

It just bares repeating. :)
