I don't play my PS3 very often. It's mostly used for Netflix streaming.

The only games I ever play are Grand Theft Auto (which wifey hates) and NCAA Basketball 2010 (Memphis Tigers!). Oddly enough, wifey enjoys watching me play NCAA because she's a complete Tigers fanatic. It's like watching a real game to her. haha

Is this Jack Donaghy's latest creation?

My new TV has a USB port, but can't play video files. It can do photo slideshows and update firmware. Luckily, my PS3 handles all my video file/Netflix streaming/Blu Ray goodness.

Completely off topic... but my parents had that same (or incredibly similar) lamp when I was growing up! It just brought back tons of memories from my old house in Minneapolis. Awesome!

I agree... don't really care about the TV tuner. All I need is bluray, big hard drive for video storage, and wireless for streaming netflix. Looks like this thing can get the job done!

The hard drive in this is 3.5", so you can get a bigger drive from Newegg for relatively cheap (much cheaper than Dell wants for their upgrade).

Counting my pennies...

Hey wow, that's the same color accent wall I have in my bedroom! I love it. The wife and I agonized over picking a color, but once we splashed some of that stuff behind our bed... we were in love!

I've been using a guitar stand for my Guitar Hero axes for about a year now. Looks way better than tossing them on a chair.

Plus I got my wife to let me keep a little tube guitar amp in the living room, which really adds to the effect.

Pretty slick. I've been trying to convince the wife to let me build an MD100 shed in the backyard for my office/man cave. So far the answer is NO! But she did agree to a 2 story garage/guest apartment that I can use as an office.

Sounds like a good deal to me.

The Sony MDR-7506's are okay. Ask a recording studio owner what headphones to buy, and you are likely to hear about Sennheiser hd280's. For only $100, these headphones are marvelous. I won't buy anything else for my studio, and yes - I do listen to my iPod with these headphones outside the studio.

Trust an audio guy that has worked on a lot of albums, the hd280's are well worth the Benjamin.
