Tiger’s Return to Golf to be Broadcast in 3D
In: web resources
17 Mar 2010
Tiger Woods will compete in the 2010 Masters tournament next month, returning to golf from his five-month hiatus.
If you want to see him play, you’ll be able to do so in a new way: Comcast will stream live video of the Masters in addition to its traditional cable broadcast of the event, and both will be available in 3D.
You’ll need a 3D-enabled television or computer to experience it, but if you’ve got the hardware, tune on April 7 – 11 to see Tiger and the other golfers show off their skills. Comcast plans to stream about two hours of live footage each day. While the 3D web stream will be powered by Comcast, the official Masters website will host it.
It’s not clear whether or not the 3D streams will be limited to Comcast customers.
Tiger’s return to golf has been anticipated ever since his multiple extramarital affairs went public and dominated the news and Twitter’s trending topics for days.
Woods has already proven that he can draw a lot of viewers to a live stream — his post-affair press conference attracted 683,000 viewers on Ustream. We’ll see in a few weeks if his golfing prowess — and the intense consumer appeal of 3D — can pull in big numbers, too.

Sounds like you are missing your AV (audio/video) cable. One end plugs into AV OUT on your dreamcast, the other end has RCA plugs (one red, one yellow, one white) that plug into your TV. Unfortunately, it is a proprietary cord – you have to have a Dreamcast one.
If that is the case, they are available on ebay, search for "Dreamcast audio video"

Get urself a copy from the web its free, of Musicmatch version 9.0 don't get 10 cause Yahoo bought off Musicmach and now they charge money every year. But Musicmatch 9.0 converts WMA to MP3 MP3Pro and vice versa.

His wife just found out he was cheating on her and she was chasing him with golf clubs, he got in the car, took off, she followed, he zigged when he should of zagged, to try and get away from the crazied women and he wrecked to try and make it look like he was hurt so she feel sorry for him, so she'd back off. It worked. Great plan Tiger. I'll remember that one.
