diamondd commented on Canton DM55 Soundbar - $499 (RRP $849; Last Sold $599) + Free Shipping Australia Wide @ RIO Sound and Vision
TruSurround is not surround. would very much like to hear this but can't see how you wouldn't be better off putting $500 into a 2.0 setup.

So does this work with the app via your home wifi? I guess you could also connect it to a wifi hotspot?

How many platters in this thing? I'm still wary of the reliability of these massive drives.

You won't notice the difference until the cheaper one gives up and dumps a load through one of your more expensive components.

still think these are overrated on OzBargain. The small keyboard is a massive deal breaker IMO.

I've found that The Book Depository is cheapest so often that I don't bother searching on booko any more. YMMV of course.

not full-sized keyboard is a massive deal breaker IMO. I'm surprised that laptop has been so popular tbh.

also, people love to upvote refurbished Dell workstations and I fail to see how an old Thinkpad would pose any greater risk.

that's because I think it's a great idea. I get around 6 hours on an old 9-cell, YMMV of course.
