It was a day of mixed emotions.<\/p>\n
My PS3 came today, and it\u2019s currently set up in our media center and playing a Blu-Ray movie (which looks\u2026pretty similar from the couch). It took a while to download the latest update and set up my online persona, but it was all worth it when my avatar was able to dance the running man in a virtual park and a random stranger joined<\/em> me in tandem. That\u2019s the future, friends.<\/p>\n On the flip side, the DVR is going. The new TV card is working finely, but after installing both Vista Media Center and MythTV, I think I may go with Vista for a while. The added bonus of being able to easily watch Hulu on the TV is too good to pass up. Still, it\u2019s been longer than I expected and the machine still isn\u2019t quite up to par.<\/p>\n It\u2019s been a tiring day. So here I leave you, dear reader. Until tomorrow, when I hope to be in strictly positive spirits instead of the ambivalence with which I type these words today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was a day of mixed emotions.
