Average Rating :

Rating : - Covers the Current and Soon to be Technologies
It used to be that home entertainment was so simple. You went to the store and bought a TV set, where the only choices had to do with how big a tube and how fancy a cabinet. Not any more.

This book is intended to make sense out of the techno-babble that the salesman is going to give you about modern day equipment. Even the words are changing. HDTV, aspect ratio, LCD and many such terms are thrown about by the salesmen, who may have only a slight hint as to what they mean but whom will try to make you look stupid by throwing them out.

This book covers the current and soon to be technologies to tell you what is important and what is not when you are putting out your hard earned money. It covers the technology in a very general way, explaining what is possible, not the gritty details of how everything works. The book is generally speaking not brand specific. It talks about the general capabilities, not specific brands and models, most of which would be discontinued before you could find one.

This is a very helpful little book.
