Why is Netflix only showing part of what's on instant watch

I just signed up for netflix and activated my XBox 360. When I first signed on, it was showing a bunch of movies in a lot of different categories. Now it's only showing Party and Instant Queue. Is there a way to show all the movies?

legal/financial advice needed

There is no mortgage on the house. I believe it has been paid off in full. I did meet with an estate lawyer and I'm not sure if what he recommended was the best way. He had two ways of going about this: 1) Give his share over to me as a gift and pay taxes on the gift. He said that 90% of the...

How do I silence a loud neighbor?

Too much work. I'd have to somehow get the clip to loop. That probably means converting it to an mp3 file. And if he only has an old school stereo system I might have to burn it on a cd. And on top of all that my buddy would have to go out and buy a ski mask and duct tape.

Best cooling fan / system for PS3?

I have the 60gb PS3 and it makes a lot of noise and gets pretty hot. I put it in an open area that allows it to get as much air as it needs for cooling. Does anyone know of a good solution or which cooling fan is recommended the most? Thanks

Shows I'm Watching this fall

I think I watched the first 4 episodes or so and had to stop watching it. I think the event that caused me to stop watching the show is when Sarah Connor decided not to kill the guy who starts the whole robot revolution.
