So, if I were to get a PSthree just for playing bluraze, can I get a proper non-controller remote?

@runjumpkick Video will go to the hdmi/TV, digital audio to the receiver.

@morbusiff it's true, I'm not sure I can count on my own willpower. Still, I've heard that the PS3 was the best BD player. Is it still true?

@morbusiff call me an awful Dad, but I don't want the PS3 b/c my kids already spend too much time looking at screens.

@runjumpkick unfortunately, the receiver is a bit older -- no video switching.

one thing I know i want in a blu-ray player: digital audio out. Not seeing it (listed at least on some low-end players.

Frustrated that I have no idea what to look for in a basic but good quality blu-ray player. help?

@sudama I will now refer to you solely as "Adam Vice", "Mr. Vice", or "A. Vice #badassnickname

@sethdill ow. You win. :-D though I have the opposite problem -- most models don't get wide widths until 9.5. I'm an 8.5.

Ok, twitter: best blu-ray player around $100. Don't need or want a PS3. Don't need Netflix etc. Do want fast loading.

@sethdill High arch, extra wide, Morten's Toe (though what Morten is walking around on is beyond me).

Ordered a HM MIrra today. First time buying a "good" chair, and excited about it.

Ugh. Shoe shopping for my mutant feet is a total pain.

Trying out Herman Miller chairs this morning only made me realize how much my broke-down IKEA chair is a literal pain in the ass.

@sudama @codinghorror I like the back on the Celle but not sitting on it. I prefer the fabric on the Mirra and Aeron.

So, re: the chair thing, I may have decided on an HM Mirra, based on @codinghorror's recommendation and a great price from a local dealer.

Looking for a new coding chair to buy in the next 2 days (2011 purchase). Amazon-available is best, high back and adjustable, no-Aeron pls.
