I just bought a new TV with a DVD and sound system, what with a seperate DVD recorder it now takes FIVE remote controls to work the effing thing.

And the cables at the back you would not beleive.

I love it.  cloud9:

Indeed, whack it all together and switch it on ? hey presto!

On no account whatsoever should you read the manual which was probably written in Chinese and translated through several other languages before finally being translated to English.  ;)
