Look at any number of standard universal remote controls and
you’re likely to note one similarity: a cluster of buttons
at the top, each labelled with a different component type. “TV”,
“VCR”, “DVD”, “DSS”... anyone
who’s ever used a remote will be familiar with the device-based
control concept, where you hit the button corresponding to the
device you want to use, do whatever needs to be done, and then
press a different button to switch to the next component.
This approach
may be the overwhelming industry standard, appearing on practically
every remote control ever designed, but that doesn’t
mean it’s the only way to operate your home theater
– or even the best way. If you’re tired of the
whole device surfing routine and are looking for something
a little different... even possibly better... |

You’ve
seen them in big box electronic stores and in the “audio
video” area of discount retailers. You may have even seen
them in the impulse purchase section of your favorite grocery
store. They’re those inexpensive preprogrammed universal
remotes, hermetically sealed in clear plastic and stacked ten
deep on wire pegs. Popular brand names in big type emblazon
the packages: GE, One For All, Philips/Magnavox, Radio Shack,
RCA, Sony, Zenith and more. Most are priced under $20 –
a seemingly unbeatable bargain in the struggle against remote
control clutter.

Computers
aren’t just for work or games anymore. No siree, the
computer industry has its eyes fixed firmly on the home theater
industry – just take a look at some of the non-computing
products coming out from Gateway or even Dell. Eventually,
they’d like the personal computer to become an essential
part of any home media room. A merging of audio, video and
processing power?
The transformation is already well underway. The latest generation
of powerful, quiet and compact computers can be the centerpiece
of a superior home theater, or even act as a complete audio/video
system. |
