Wireless speakers

Why can’t I use these speakers to play music from my computer?      I’m sitting in my room at my parent’s house, watching the NBA playoffs on TV. Above my TV, I have 2 fairly large speakers that are hooked up to a relatively old stereo. The idea: convert these 2 unused speakers into wireless speakers that I can use from my computer.      After doing a little research on wireless speakers I was not impressed. Most of the conversation is focused on surround sound or home theatre systems. A couple…See More

These speakers look great. I really wish I had the extra money to purchase them.

Now posting from my new mac computer.

Okay okay so maybe its not brand new... It actually just turned one year old just this month but the point is it still runs like new. I bought my apple laptop this time last year in preparation for school. At that time I was strictly a PC user. I had owned a dell and gateway but after doing my research and asking apple owners about their computers, I decided to splurge and purchase an apple laptop. Yes they are a bit more money and there is a learning curve to using them but I have never been…See More

I just bought a new 52"HD television. It is beautiful! The only thing better than having a HDTV is having a bigger HDTV.

It sounds like you sure have thought about all of the positives and negatives of no having cable. It sure is a great plan, especially if you are trying to save money. $50 a month would work wonders. Netflix is an amazing solution as far as movies…

HDTV Truely is HIGH DEFINITION

I'm sure almost everyone who owns a television has heard of HDTV. I am here to tell you all that if you watch television on a frequent basis and are trying to decide to get an upgrade on your television, DO IT. I recently bought my first HDTV, a new HD cable box, and a new HDMI cord to connect the cable box to the television. I watched the Super Bowl on this TV and decided I could never watch another football game on a normal TV again. The picture on my HDTV is incredible; crystal clear.

Technology in Philosophy

One of my favorite movie quotes is from the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Gene Wilder, who plays Willy Wonka says "Oh you can't go back that way. You have to go forward in order to go back". To a lot of people that does not make much sense of course you can always go back the way you came. This is not so. In the case of going back in history, we cannot simply just go back.

NFL Kicker! iPhone game gets you ready for the Super Bowl (Appolicious)

Appolicious - NFL Kicker! is the sort of game you download innocently enough looking to kill a few spare minutes; then, by the time you finally look up, you’ve spent half an hour devoted to kicking digital field goals.
