Today is my little brother's 16th birthday. I lamented about the issues I have with this last year, so I won't do it again. But happy birthday anyway, bro.
I couldn't resist getting him a "Sweet 16" birthday card (which he SO appreciated). But I figure he got a manly enough gift from me that he's already been enjoying.
My dad took us both out to dinner, where he surprised the heck out of me with his birthday gift. I had been talking to him about a cool device I had seen, and he went and got it for me, which I didn't expect, because he had previously told me he was just going to give me a check. Thanks dad. It's VERY cool.
So now I can watch TV while browsing the net from anywhere that I have an internet connection. How cool is that? I'm often not home and miss various shows, but am not much for using a VCR or Tivo (too high maintenance). I'd rather just see it or miss it. Well, with this device, if I'm somewhere with a net connection but no TV, I can just watch TV with the trusty laptop. In particular it should been handy for road/business trips.
Sweet!
