Re: this is not a pc question

Hey Penny
You need a special connection. My parents have optus and to tape one and
watch the other you need a special connection, it is not expensive at all.
You need this connection because your free to air channels are now threw
optus. its just one extra lead (i think) and once you connect that to your
video and tv you will be able to tape!

i know everyone else here is a bit peeved at such a question in a pc help
newsgroup but i would just like to say i have actually asked for help in
these newsgroups before and have been treated like total and utter crap -
even worse ppl have been sooooooo rude and abusive - i was shocked and i know
i can throw a very nasty line when i want to. And even when i have gone out
of my way to help others i stil have been abused and under minded and made to
feel i know nothing........................ just thought i would mention that
because although Penny is in the completely wrong area at least she seemed
nice :)
