I dunno if this makes me geeky or not, but almost 100% of my media collection is all digital. Cds are pretty much gone. Most movies are now digital. Just started working on books. I'm lovin my appleTV.

I just got the Air Video app for my iPad and put the server software on my Win7 box. Now I can stream my digital media to the iPad. It would have been better if iPad could just use DLNA instead, but this works.

No, but I played the demo...it's pretty fun. Seeing as how I'm in Korea and don't have the budget nor availability to buy new games...I go to youtube and watch this very funny "Let's Play": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDiDo...el_video_title (unfortunately, at the moment, I can't post hyperlinks).

ETA: Then again, what do I know. You can click the link.

I picked up that Donald and Minnie when we were at WDW in January, looked all over for that Pete, couldn't find him. Alas.

Not now, but soon. I just finished another book, and next up for me is to start reading the Kingdom Keepers series. I figure I'll wait a bit and download them for the plane rides to/from Colorado at the end of June.
