Even worse all the new panasonic VCR's, DVD players and recorders have mirrored faceplates this year. Can you think of anything more distracting that mirrored surfaces flashing at you everytime you shift your head while you're trying to watch TV? What are these people thinking?

No kidding.... I like certain brands but if they don't offer tv's, dvd's, stereo equipment in black I'll go with a brand that will.... I can't stand the silver...
For computers and laptops I don't really care..... I have a black Dell desktop and a silver Dell laptop......
