USB to TV (probably a really stupid question...)
I tend to watch a lot of programs from my Hard Drive, so they get dropped on to a USB stick which in turn is plugged into the DVD player downstairs. In my bedroom I have a 36" TV which is hidden away in a built in cabinet to look like part of the fitted wardrobes, the downside of this is there is no room to put a large DVD…

Looking for an excuse to waste money on a Mac
Was looking to spend some money on an unnecessary Mac purchase for my 50th Birthday. Originally liked the Mini (base model £500) as I don't like all in ones, if one part goes the lot is junk plus there is more heat inside. They (Mini) are often reported as the most reliable Mac.

Panasonic Lumix TZ Question
I've got a Panasonic Lumix TZ1. How do I determine, using the camera, how much space is left on the memory card? I'm sure it must be staring me in the face, but having checked the camera and the user manual I can't see it. Assuming it can be done I'd guess all the TZ series would do it the same way. Thanks
