The Long Day

I'm very tired tonight, but couldn't let the streak die at just 2 posts in as many days now, could I? :)   Just got back from helping a coworker set up their brand new LED flat screen TV.   Very impressive setup... and would have been able to test it... if Best Buy had actually sold them the right stuff.

The sold him HDMI cables that were too short and no surge supressor.  We're in the middle of the friggin' desert and because it's so dry, we get tons of lightening hits.  The last thing you want to do is fry thousands of dollars of electronics.   So he's going back tomorrow to get the remaining pieces he needs to complete the setup.

I'm afraid it's gonna be a short post cause I'm just too tired to keep writing.   I'll post another mini-update midday tomorrow or so. :)

I bought an XBOX 360 a couple weeks ago. Got the Premium version with the built-in hard drive and wireless controller, plus a bonus game of Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Has anyone else had problems getting their Most Wanted games to load/play properly? I've gone so many 360's and game CD's it's not funny. I finally gave up on it at the Best Buy store. The XBOX itself reads every other disc just fine, but the Most Wanted CD's appear to be a bad batch or bad burns or something.
