The X-Box that can be reviewed is not the enduring and
unchanging X-Box. The reviewer that can be rewarded is not the enduring and unchanging reviewer.

Conceived of as having no reviewer, it is the Originator of Halo and Call of Duty; conceived of as having a reviewer it is the Mother of all boredom cures.

Always without anything important to do we must be found,
If its deep mystery we would sound;
But if anything important always must we do,
Its outer fringe is all that we shall see.

Under these two aspects, it is really the same; but as X-Box addiction grows, it receives the different names. Together we call them the Mystery. Where the Mystery is the deepest is the gate of all that is subtle and wonderful.

...So, I should review the X-Box.

Also, I will power it with switchgrass.

I was wondering, until I stumbled upon this post, why every night this week, voices have been telling me:

"Lexmark. Lexmark."

So, really, the relief in knowing that there was some rhyme and reason to that otherwise disconcerting experience is reward enough.

That aside, an actual WiFi printer would be quite a lovely bonus. And you know what? I'm the perfect guy to review this piece of modern technology. Not only am I officially a Computer Guy, I'm also sitting in a household with Macs, PCs and even a Linux system, and have spent far too much time in the past year trying to get wireless printing to work flawlessly in exactly the way I want.

I've tried cheap print servers connected to my router (flaky at best). I've tried a USB network sharing device (no dice on the mac). I've tried the new Apple AirPort Extreme router with built-in print serving (works great, but confuses my PC into thinking the printer's unavailable for 5 seconds, popping up an error window, before realizing everything is OK).

And to top it all off, the printer is a good 5 years old and is seriously in need of replacing.

So not only am I still seeking the perfect WiFi printing solution, I can actually tell you how it compares to other options that are out there. How sweet is that?!
