The geezer is back! Now get off my lawn!

I have been flogging HTPC websites in one form another for several years now. I guess it is not in my blood to give up this damn hobby. Mike, in all his stubborness, keeps chipping away at me until I finally folded like a cheep card table. What inspired me to come back at least on a part time basis? […]

D-Link Boxee Box Reviewed at CNet

boxeebox720_1_512x288.jpg

Nothing revolutionary here–love the remote, hate the lack of Hulu. We’re looking to get our very own Boxee Box soon and provide an in depth look, but for now enjoy C|Net’s opinion on it. Basic apps like Netflix, Vudu, and Hulu Plus are promised soon, but not available yet; content holders like Hulu are blocking Boxee’s browser; double-sided remote has […]

Yahoo! Connected TVs to Start Selling Widgets

Western Digital 3TB Caviar Green Drive

I have to admit, the thought of tossing 4 of these into my WHS has happened more than once…just the ability to get almost 12tb of storage space from only 4 drives is darned impressive. Although the price is now $260 per, you know the drive is quick to go down if you’re patient. On the surface, the new 3TB […]

Samsung PN50C7000 50 inch Plasma TV Review

Here’s a review on a pretty nifty 50″ plasma from Samsung, who seem to have a million TV’s on the market (have you been to Best Buy lately?). But nonetheless, they provide one for everyone’s needs, in this case a 3D TV for less than $2000 is pretty solid deal. Although, no glasses included…pretty weak. For anyone looking to jump […]
