| 734559 | 2009-01-03 19:20:00 | Hey, Question 4 USB is a connector to a PC but then again a BUS is a connector to a PC, ever heard of the PCI BUS? or even the universal serial bus? and then there is that 9 pin SUB connector that connects your comport. Weird huh! Yeah but they meant peripherals. And com ports aren't really used much now. Everythings USB - cameras, keyboards, printers etc. |

Everythings USB - cameras, keyboards, printers etc. Who is "they" and how do you know what "they" meant? But I hear what your saying. The universal serial BUS is in more use that the comm port for consumers. Where I work the comm port still takes a thrashing... |

| 734561 | 2009-01-04 07:25:00 | Does the subwoofer count as a speaker in 5.1 systems? IF the marketing is to believed, the subwoofer isn't a speaker (always marketed as 5 speakers plus a sub) Of course it does. The .1 means its not a full range channel, but it still needs a speaker to enable you to hear it. I presume it is treated differently as the main speakers don't carry the LF signal and vice versa. |

| 734563 | 2009-01-04 07:34:00 | I knew them all. Number 2 is a strange question, I guess the answer they were after was 'aspect ratios'. I say it's a strange question because 'letterboxing' refers to the 4:3 aspect ratio, while 'pan and scan' is a technique to stretch a 4:3 image into a 'square' display without distorting the image, but 'cutting off' the sides, slightly. Usually just enough to obscure the score of a rugby game from view. See what I mean, strange. |
