My previous apartment was a studio/one bedroom that totaled 294 square feet. It was a great layout (separate bedroom, kitchen/living area combo) if it wasn't on the first floor of a walk-up. 391 feet would have been a dream.

@Carrotsticks - thanks. I'm interested in the Boxee b/c it can stream literally any audio/video file regardless of format (even covers some of the ones I've never dealt with). Thanks for the input!

Does anyone have the Boxee? I've been thinking about getting one...they have an add-on for live TV via the airwaves (which we still have here in NYC). The add-on is essentially an expensive "bunny ears" attenna but I like that the channels are synced into the Boxee on-screen operating system...

Great hack. The upholstery tacks add a nice touch, too. I wonder how this would look on the Granas kitchen table...
