Yikes! Consumer Electronic Rip...

I finally got around to looking at the manuals for a TV set and DVD player we have, and noticed there was a "new" way to hook them up together, with an "HDMI" cable. The cable is supposed to provide the highest possible video quality from a DVD to the TV set, and it also carries audio signals. $100+ for the manufacturer's branded cable, same price for a "Monster" cable. Unbelievable. The fittings on the cable sort of resemble the flat ones on a USB cable, but they are not the same. $100, for what I am sure is a perfectly ordinary cable. I had no idea SONY had been taken over by the boating industry. Anyway, I shopped around for a while, and found a no-name supplier who has the cable for *only* $35. Sheesh. For a 6' cable with two 50-cent ends on it. Where was the no-name cable made? Dan |
