Over the past few days I installed Windows Media Center Edition on my PC and configured it to connect to my Xbox 360. Let me tell you, this is one slick system for streaming media to your TV. The Xbox 360 works as an extender for the Media Center and can be set to access [...]

Mac mini
January 12, 2005 – 9:34 pm
At $500, I think it’s time to start thinking about trying a Mac mini. People have been ranting and raving to me for the last year or two that I need a Mac. At this price for such a tiny little thing, I don’t know if I could pass it up. Although I think the [...]
I need a break
November 8, 2004 – 4:48 pm
Over the next few days (or weeks) I’ll be taking a break from the online poker tables to play one of the most anticipated games ever. I’ve had my copy of Halo 2 on pre-order for 6 months now and have been waiting for the game for almost two years. If you’re interested, read some [...]
New View

I just took my original starting bankroll of $300 and bought a 17 inch flat panel monitor. So now my poker bankroll is all winnings! Couldn’t beat the deal with $110 back in rebates.
Atari vs. Mac

VS.
Can someone please explain the difference between these two devices? Both allow you to move a cursor or object in all directions on your screen and both have one button. Besides the obvious color, shape, and size differences, I think these two devices are the same. Please convince me otherwise…

Texas Hold'em Odds
October 7, 2004 – 1:45 pm
I found a very useful pre-flop calculator to see what your chances are with particular hands. The same site also provides a very detailed odds chart which is useful for comparing to pot odds. I think this chart will be my new study guide. Any poker player who wants to be serious should memorize these [...]

Party Poker and Poker Tracker
October 2, 2004 – 12:41 am
With my recent switch to Party Poker, I decided to give Poker Tracker a try. Let me tell you…it’s one fine piece of software for the online poker player. The program allows you to import your hand histories from a number of online poker sites. It stores everything in a database and gives you so [...]
VOIP
September 20, 2004 – 3:29 pm
VOIP, it’s the greatest thing on earth. Someone accidentally cut a line of fiber somewhere on campus today so about about 800 students are left without Internet access, but they can’t call us because their phones don’t work either. It’s great! 5 students have actually been smart enough to realize that their cell phones still [...]

All I Can Say Is WOW!!
March 28, 2004 – 9:44 am
My TV is amazing! I’ve never seen a better picture before watching DVDs or playing XBOX. Mo came over last night, I whooped his ass in NBA Live and then we watched a movie.
Both my DVD player and the XBOX output an HD signal and the picture is unbelievable. Movies and games have never looked [...]

I just made the purchase of my life! I bought a 50″ Grand WEGA LCD rear projection TV (KF-50WE610).
Joel over at ABC Warehouse hooked me up with some sweet deals. I got the TV for $2870, which is $430 cheaper than the price at Circuit City, Best Buy, and Sony. I also bought the 5 [...]
A New Puter
February 5, 2004 – 12:52 pm
I ordered a new computer today from Dell. They have a pretty sweet deal going on right now for a server. It has a free upgrade from a Celuron processor to a Pentium 4 2.26 GHz, comes with a 40 GB hard drive, and all the basics. It doesn’t come with any software, but I [...]
Technology Rules…
February 4, 2004 – 7:07 pm
…my life. There is no question about it. I do all of my banking and pay most of my bills online. I store all phone numbers in my cell phone. Any addresses I need to remember are stored in my email address book. I schedule all of my appointments on the calendar in my email [...]
