    How to watch F1 Racing Online or on a Roku?

    Does anyone know if F1 racing is going to be offered online or by streaming for the 2014 season? It's getting ready to start, and I'd like to be able to watch it on my TV. Now that I don't have cable, it's going to be much harder to do. I'm looking for legal ways to watch it.

    Comcast Throttling my Internet Speed?

    I just installed a new modem (Motorola SB6121) and I'm seeing download speeds of less than 4 mbps and uploads of .5 mbps. I have the "performance internet" package and I should be getting speeds close to double that. I've had a tech come out to test out my cabling and he said everything was...

    Is the practice of buying coupons legal?

    I use slickdeals.com and a few other sites when searching for deals and yesterday I came across a Garmin deal that was almost too good to be true. The OP posted a link to a coupon site where you had to pay $4 to receive $25 off at Best Buy. Something doesn't seem right about that.

    Freevision FV-HD30 Antenna

    Been seeing a bunch of advertising on different AV forums (especially AVS) about this antenna. Honestly, I don't really see any reason to pay more than $15 for an indoor antenna. Best results I ever got was from an unamplified set of rabbit ears.

    How often do you watch PBS

    We usually find ourselves watching PBS 1-2 hours tops every week. There's no set show that we have to see, it's more of a mood kind of thing. I take that back, we do watch more nature shows than anything. How about you?
