This is a gift idea for someone special... myself!
I'm looking to pick up a reliable, inexpensive dvd player that will play xvid format so I can continue to be lazy and copy direct from computer to dvd as data.
Suggestions?
I found that usually these systems have HDMI as well (makes sense) but I'm actually not looking for something that elaborate, necessarily, so I'm not willing to necessarily pay for HDMI on a crappy DVD player that's playing pirated tv/porn.
Thanks in advance.

Skip a step and just get a good video card and plug into the HDMI on your TV.
Or just hit up Walmart I guess. You work there as a greeter already don't you?

so rather than spend >$100 on a dvd player your solution is to spend <$200 on a wireless 'slingbox' device....eamon angelface wrote:http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/drives/8e50/

It's an investment though.
You can spend 100$ on a DVD player you'll use for 6 months and then replace with something better or spend 200$ and save having to buy something better for probably more than 200$ down the road.
Plus you can use that box for any TV in your house to run HD stuff to.
If you really want a cheap ass DVD player hit up a Circuit City that's closing and grab one for like 10 bucks.
