Verto....let me give you an example. I like to travel. I just got back from south america. I also like sports. In Argentina, where i was living, we couldn't get the spurs games. I wanted to watch the spurs games. This would have facilitated that. How, exactly, is that pathetic?"Mal nommer les choses, c'est accroître le malheur du monde" - Camus (thanks Davout)

I would just consider my life to be fairly dismal if I couldn't live without seeing some TV show while visiting a foreign country or whatnot. I went a month in Germany without accessing the Internet for more than 3 times, all of which consisted of checking my email(for flight info. mainly) and posting once on Eventis. I can't imagine needing something like this, as I like to think that when I'm on vacation, I don't need TV for entertainment.

This is cool. I could be watching the ball game that is on right now while I'm at work. Maybe not $250 cool, on the other hand.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

Either way -- insulting Kaak or insulting people in general just because they might appreciate something like the Slingbox makes you look like a jerk in this instance.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

anyway, no harm done somethings just can't be missed vert, IE, the sports games. It just isn't the same watching the superbowl after it happened also, i have a little lap top that i take with me when i travel, so i can get online pretty much anywhere. thank god for wifi"Mal nommer les choses, c'est accroître le malheur du monde" - Camus (thanks Davout)

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned
