FBpnAG: "Aaaargh!"
Asgard: "Hey, I

FBpnAG: "You never said they would be bleeding snake monsters that

people! Snake monsters bent on intergalactic domination! And apostrophe abuse!"
Asgard: (looking shifty) "...oh, didn't I? Sorry. Right. Whoops, is that the time? Must pop back home to feed the giants. Later!"
Bill Lee is The Other Guy. In Evolution he's The Other Guy Who Gets Captured By Stereotypical Central American Terrorists; in most of the rest of his episodes, he's The Other Scientist Who Isn't Sam Carter. He's kind of short and balding and roundish, in my head at least. (I have a lousy visual memory.)
What brand of dvd player is the one vidders prefer? My birthday is coming up and I want to make that a gift idea.
For the SGA readers: Your Cowboy Days Are Over, by M.
John Sheppard, post-Allies, in a place you'd never expect him. What do you give away and what do you keep, in order to protect your family?
Read it.
Bring tissues.
(And yes, I'm feeling a little ashamed that I didn't think the fandom would react as well as it has; this story is not anything like the stories that most people in the fandom seem to love. It's good to know that if it's good, it gets recognized.)

I'm not sure if it's what vidders in particular like, but one that's quite popular and very affordable is by Norcent. It plays a million file formats in addition to DVDs, so you could pop a data disc full of AVIs in without actually having to convert to DVD format. Try searching on Amazon for Norcent.
That's the one I'm looking for. I saw one on Amazon that played a bunch of different formats but not AVIs.
Also do you know if Vividcon is going to do the same thing they did last year for their dvd set?
I haven't heard anything about Vividcon DVDs yet, and I don't actually own a Norcent, so I am little help.
Norcent got a two star rating on amazon.com.
I found the Cyber Home while browsing, it got a three star rating but it had more reviewers and people either loved it or thought it sucks.
The Norcent plays DVD-Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, and VCD, as well as MP3 music and JPEG image CDs.
The Cyber Home plays DVD-Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, CD, CD-R, CD-RW, SVCD, VCD, MP3, and JPEG picture CD.
They are about the same price but I think I'm going to go with the Cyber Home just because the reviews are better.
