I\'m not 100% sure about this, as I don\'t have a Sky+ HD box. Worst-case scenario is that the Sky+ HD box includes extra copyright protection and forces everything to be viewed through a HDMI connection, whereas the best-case scenario is that the non-HD channels can still be viewed using the RF Out. I hope that the latter is true.

If anyone has a Sky+ HD box, can you confirm this either way? Many thanks.

I hear you about Arkham Asylum- I realised that once you\'ve played through it once, it\'s enough really. All\'s I need to do is replay \'the story\' on hard and do some of the challenge rooms etc, but I don\'t feel motivated to do this! So, you\'re absolutely right: great game, but shame about the re-playability of the title.

Regarding Uncharted 2, ahem. How could an Uncharted mega-fan forget his favourite game? Well... it was the second paragraph under the Batman heading but I had forgotten to write the Uncharted 2 heading! D\'oh! I\'d like to mention that unlike Batman, Uncharted 2 (and the original, now I think of it) has tons of replay value. I\'m currently on my 3rd play-through on Crushing.

It\'s quite cathartic! It feels like a fresh start. I highly recommend it!

Sweet! I've actually managed to take a look at Perian so far, and I'd be pretty stupid not to install it! Cheers for the MacHeist link- I love free stuff. Free is good.

Thanks for the suggestions! Tweetie is a must, but for everything else I'm going to have to wait a while. Blew all my money on the Mac :s

We shall see :p

Same here really. I've gone past the stage of opening up a PC, tinkering about with it and spending days either configuring components or reinstalling Windows for the umpteenth time. I just want a simpler, more productive life!

My Mac will become my main computer, with my old Windows PC retained for compatibility testing (I don't want to go down the whole virtualisation route), and I still have my Windows laptop which I reckon can be wiped and given a new lease of life.

Point noted- it was most probably a hardware fault. But I didn't actually blame Windows itself. I was disappointed at the experience as a whole. Hardware and software form the complete experience. When one of those fails, it does ruin it for the consumer.

I've not one of those disgruntled Windows users who has 'fled' to the Mac platform wholesale: I've just run Windows computers for long enough to realise that I fancy a change. I'm currently typing this reply on a WIndows XP PC that has run beautifully (more or less) for several years.

Going forward, I'm going to keep active in both platforms but the Mac will simply be my primary computer for now.

That\'s what is great about video games. It\'s very subjective: same game, but different vastly different experiences. Don\'t get me wrong, Uncharted 2 is an excellent game- I just like to nitpick! I\'m playing through again on hard, so I\'ll update this post if I change my mind!

You can't get different Sky channels in different rooms without Sky Multiroom. This involves having an additional Sky box in each room at an extra £10 per month, per room.

There's nothing stopping you watching different terrestrial channels (soon to be switched off) in different rooms, or different freeview channels in different rooms. My solution for Sky is a compromise without you having to pay the additional £10 each month per box, per room.
