You know Sonys with that delay for the picture to appear all at once after it warms up. Maybe that normal delay is when the impatient customer is hitting the remote again and again. I have a PC tech so used to operating one and two gigahertz fast processors, that when he sits behind a 400 MHz system,he is may forget and hit the enter button, expecting a quick response, puzzled. That machine has it's own normal delays. Maybe so for the Sony problem... Phil Bader Jim Myers wrote: >Customer says he sometimes has to hit the power switch 6 or 7 times >before it will stay on.
