Thinking about buying a Xbox with Media Center(mod)
(30 Nov 2008)
I have been thinking about getting a Xbox that is coming soft-modded with XBMC and 140gb hard drive he says it works great, case has scratch and missing feet but comes with controller, power cable, and A/V cables.
This would work great for me watching stuff in my living room, because as it is I am always dragging my laptop out there.
It's gotten positive reviews, but I guess my question is how hard is it to get content on to it (basically just movies), and is it easy to use. What do I need to ge...

Independents, Liberals, Democrats, and Republicans What do you think about...
(12 Dec 2008)
I am an Independent voter, because I like to be unbiased when choosing a President. I grew up in Texas as a Christian and was fed all Republican beliefs, but I don't agree enough with that Party to be apart of it! To make a long story a friend of mine got offended when I commented on her status on myspace, which read...Today, I am going to vote for McCain! I have to add the day before her status was, I'M FOR GUNS, BABIES, AND BIBLE! So, anyway I put that I would forgive her for her Political Lap...

Media server home-build, opinions on silence most welcome!
(01 Nov 2008)
Hi all, I'm building a new media server that's going to run "almost" 24/7. All it's going to do is constantly run utorrent and store my media which i'll access via my laptop through the network. I've read through the site a good bit and have decided that silence and energy efficiency are my main goals as I don't think i'm going to be putting much strain on the comp. Here's a list of my proposed specs, and I'd greatly appreciate the opinions of more experienced people on just how well chosen my c...

From Dan Denning at the Old Hat Factory:
--"Shares may slip as U.S. mood gets darker," reports Allison
Jackson in today's Australian. Indeed. We've had some dark
days in the last year here at the Old Hat Factory. But for
whatever reason, today is one of the darkest that we can
recall.
--Here's a warning. Today's Daily Reckoning is largely about
the growing tension between individual liberty and the
coercive powe...

Your Opinion On A Media Center
(07 Nov 2008)
I have a softmodded Xbox right now with unleashX and XBMC on it, although I'm not entirely happy with it. It is networked with my computer (Vista Business - how limiting!) and reads files from my shared folders. I don't like that I'm limited to watching/listening movies/music that I have already gone through the trouble of downloading, or in other words, there's no streaming.
I need this community's help! I would like to be able to stream in different things, like from Hulu.com, Youtube, or even...

Opinions on the NETFLIX and XBOX media
(06 Dec 2008)
So I've heard conflicting opinions on the "quality" of the streaming media. Some say it's plain shiit, other say it's okay and some people think it's great quality.
I just want to get some opinions from the xbox ***iles before I get a netflix account.

Thinking about Apple TV but....
(02 Jan 2009)
I am thinking about buying an Apple TV. I have several movies, lots of music and listen (or watch) several podcasts. However, my Macbook Pro only has about 20 GB of space left on it. That's not much room to build a media library around. I have a 500 GB USB hard drive but my iTunes library isn't on there. I guess what I am asking is there a way to add storage for Apple TV to use without a HD replacement in my MBP?
Is there a good way to store my movies on an external drive for Apple TV? Or will i...

Thinking about hiring out some video production...
(10 Nov 2008)
The company I work for is interested in doing more with video clips in multimedia/video sales pieces (for tradeshows and sales visits) as well as smaller Flash web pieces for our company site. To that end, one of our marketing managers is starting to talk to video production houses in our area about doing some shoots to give us stock video footage to use in our marketing campaigns. What are the questions you would ask when talking to such outfits you're thinking about hiring? What are the indust...

Something we should all think about
(06 Nov 2008)
As most of you know I am not a President Bush fan, nor have
I ever been, but this is not about Bush, it is about us, as
Americans, and it seems to hit the mark.
The other day I was reading Newsweek magazine and came
across some Poll data I found rather hard to believe. It must be true given the source, right?
The Newsweek poll alleges that 67 percent of Americans are
unhappy with the direction the country is headed and 69 percent of the country is unhappy with the performance of the President. I...
