Wind power 17 months ago

It only cost a couple extra bucks a month. It’s totally worth it! I’m now running 120% of my bill as renewable (100% of my bill + I give a little extra so 20% of another person’s bill is renewable).

I’m glad Portland General Electric gives their customers say on how they generate electricity.

Vista Media Center. 17 months ago

Finally finished my HTPC. I decided to not go the Linux route simply because I wanted the best hardware now which isn’t supported yet. Hopefully later I will switch to Linux. I’m using Vista Home, which is surprisingly better than I expected (especially with the bad press).

I highly recommend the Antec Fusion case. I’m extremely pleased with it. Great layout, very very quiet.

2) Some movies on some stations must have digital rights management because the screen gets blurred out on playback.
