After I got the TV the first thing I wanted to check out was the DLNA capabilities it has.  Its taken a while because standing in my way was a pesky little home wiring project, and a time sink known affectionately as having a baby.  The baby is settling into a routine, and the last […]

Well the new TV came today.  I went to Best Buy, for once they had the best price going, and picked up a Pioneer 5020FD and an HD TiVo.  I’ve had the TiVo for a couple days now, and the netflix on demand feature came through this morning, so I am able to get some […]

I’m TV shopping.  I live in SD land, with my SD TiVo, my SDTV, and my SD cable.  We don’t even have digital.  I’ve been drooling over a new TV for I don’t know, 10 years.  Knowing what I know about tech, and knowing what these things cost, I’ve been fence sitting.  HD has been […]

I was perusing the latest barrage of tips from Lifehacker today and I realized something.  Once or twice a day Lifehacker has some tidbit about Windows Vista, and I completely glaze over it.  I have distanced myself so far from Vista that I don’t even care about tips and news for the OS.  I can […]

I haven’t decided if its Javascript, the lack of a decent Javascript editor, or people who abuse Javascript, but something about it smells really bad. That is all!

Its no secret among my friends that I’m an Apple Fanboy. I can’t help it, life really is better on the other side of the digital divide. February has been an interesting month for me when it comes to my Mac. With all the new releases scheduled for this month, I’ve been […]

I’ve mentioned before that I’m not quick to jump on the bandwagon when it comes to upgrading to new technology. I didn’t immediately upgrade to Leopard when it came out, and I’m glad I waited. HDTV is another one of those areas where I’ve been slow to come around.
Basically I haven’t felt comfortable […]
