Olympic rings burned into your plasma TV? Inconsiderate Prime/Sky

[Murray]

I wish they'd just hurry up & finish anyways. I'm waiting on good programming like Doctor Who to return,

Yeah and more cooking programmes and reality shows too

I dunno if the living room is a plasma, or LCD (definitely have two CRT elsewhere though) but I've fired them a message. I dislike those programing watermarks.

If it is red hot it is a plasma.

that's not a good test at all, newer plasma's don't run as hot & older or cheaper LCD's can be just as hot.
No, instead a much simpler & easier test just pick up your remote control & throw it at the screen... if it bounces off your've got a plasma, if it embeds your've got an LCD & you need a new one, see simple easy

I would think you'd find it's a requirement to broadcast those rings if you're broadcasting the olympics... It's a brand & like all brands it must be advertised! The rings have always been broadcasted.
My suggestion would be stop watching the olympics, I wish they'd just hurry up & finish anyways. I'm waiting on good programming like Doctor Who to return, bloody olympics pushed in-front & forced a delay on airing

I'm sure it is a requirement. What I am not so sure about is if the white and brightness of those things is required to be pumped up to the max.

Bugger missed. Does the remote embedded in the wall make it an LCD?

Oh well the screen is plastic so I guess its not a plasma.

the interesting thing I noticed yesterday was that TV2 have surrendered. They had scheduled 2 1/2 hours of "prime time" last night for reruns of the least funny show ever made: Two and a half men.

If that isnt throwing in the towel, what is?

I am down to 1 hour of broadcast TV or so a day, and better for it.

and so is Mastercard, and courier and post companies, and Britains economy:

www.bookdepository.co.uk takes a fair bit of my money these days.

"Olympic rings burned into your plasma TV"

first world problems.

[MIXONE]

I disagree, I quite enjoyed watching the mens diving

Must be my mind but I read that as "muff diving"

[Madness]

So you have a TV that holds images that stay on them for a period of time.

Guess that makes watching porn a problem.......

Only if necrophilia is your thing.

I didn't know that was an olympic event, I bet there's no problems with ticket sales.

My wife phoned me at work late this afternoon to tell me our 4 year old had ended up underneath the smashed screen of our new plasma TV. Must have been trying to climb up it.
