Simply are pretty well established, shouldn't be any reason to worry.

What about a wireless mouse and / or keyboard? Logitech do some wireless ones (which are better than Infra-red models).

Hello,

You can buy a specific DVD remote for PC's. My mates got one. I will try to find out make/model etc.

Hi all

I have just bought a Ricoh combi CD writer / dvd player and my pc has a TV out from the Graphics card (I know you top end guys will be cringing) but for the time being that will be my DVD player (until DVD-R is available) can I get some sort of remote control to control my pc ?? (USB?)

Tal

P.S. I bought it from Simply computers and they have put it back a few days should I be worried ?? are they reputable ??

Get an extension lead for your keyboard!!!

Most of the commands can be done using cunning key combinations!!

Cool


How about training a monkey to operate the DVD player for you?

Seriously - if you have an IR port on your PC you can probably use a remote unit with it.

I assume that Ricoh don't have anything like that for their DVD drive?
