No matter what your home cinema set-up, you'll never obtain a truly cinematic experience. How would you possibly get popcorn that over-priced outside of the theatre foyer? And you'd need to set up some sort of huge fan to emulate the impossibly efficient air conditioning which is always turned on full-blast even in mid-winter.Not to mention the multiple sweet wrapper rustlings at quiet, crucial
dialogue moments and the bloke who wants to go for a pee and knocks over your drink as he blunders past in the dark. And... hang on, we'd better stop this now before we get carried away.While home cinema will never feature that hundred foot wide screen, it does deftly sidestep all the above-mentioned painful issues. And as big TV technology comes down in price, more and more people are adopting it, including PC users who are making their Athlon or Intel box the centre of their home video (and music) systems. All you need is a graphics card and sound card with the appropriate digital outputs (DVI and 5.1 respectively) and you're away.
PowerDVD 6 Deluxe is an excellent software DVD player which provides a host of playback options, a top-notch picture and a user-friendly interface. It comes thoroughly recommended for new users, while those upgrading from version 5 will be impressed by the number of added features, particularly on the audio front
