Brits win Chesterfield

Well here’s another one for the Brits! They have retained supremacy in High-Speed sofas.

A few weeks ago, Marek Turowski drove a motorized chesterfield down a runway. He managed to attain a speed of 147 km hour.

The motorized furniture is made by Edd China, and believe it or not the sofa is officially street legal for driving! This new ultimate relaxation vehicle will be used to raise money for charity.

Turowski said of his feat: “It was terrifying. You feel every bump.” The previous record of 139 km/h was also set by a British sofa.

You’d think that it would have been a more comfortable ride would you? They’ll have to put more shock absorbers in upcoming models.

Dvd recorder and player guide

I just came across a website that appears to be the ultimate guide for anyone looking to purchase anything DVD.

The site is called DVD Recorders and Players Guide and it’s filled with information on the various types of DVD players and recorders, systems to use with them, the latest technologies such as the new Samsung Blu-Ray Disc Player, pricing and even shopping information.

If you are considering purchasing a DVD system for your home or as a gift for someone you care about then you should visit the guide and get some information so that you can purchase the DVD system that best suits your needs. I know that I’m going to be spending some time there reading about the new Blue Ray disc players. I’ve been hearing about them on TV and it looks like the quality of the DVD picture with this new technology is simply mind blowing.
