It’s 5:15am, I’m at work, the FREE wi-fi has a limited signal strength, and my coffee taste weak. It’s gonna be a great day…”not”!

Going mouse hunting.

I’m in need of a new mouse & keyboard combo, or just a new mouse. I was running the Logitech S-510 mouse & keyboard combo but the mouse started to malfunction several months ago. It had a flashing light on top which kept telling me that the batteries were dead even after I replaced the mouse with fresh batteries over and over again. Eventually the mouse stopped working all together. The keyboard still works great, it’s slim (low profile), plenty of features…no issues. So the hunt is on for a new mouse, and I’m thinking of going bluetooth this time. I have this old Blekin bluetooth USB Adapter (from like 2003-2004) that I used with my old Compaq iPaq H2215 Pocket PC. It was such a pain in the neck to get the two devices paired…I eventually gave up on bluetooth back then. I’m sure bluetooth technology has advanced over the past several years, maybe I’ll buy a new bluetooth USB Adapter too eh?

Office re-configuration update.

Today I integrated my DishNetwork satellite receiver, and DVR (set top DVD burner) into my home built media center. My (cheap-ass) media center now includes my 80GB iPod Classic for watching video podcast, an old laptop for streaming LIVE web content, the satellite receiver, and DVR all viewable on a wall-mounted 17” LCD monitor. I think it’s the perfect setup for my home office.

Now let’s see…I still have my Nintendo GameCube Wavebird wireless controller sitting around. Should I hot-wire the old Nintendo GameCube console into the system?

The re-working of my computer desk is almost complete. Gone is the TV, Set-top DVD burner (DVR), DishNetwork satellite receiver, the desktop PC, and a bunch of cables, remotes, and docks for hardware I don’t use anymore.Whats the big deal? I finally switched to my Alienware laptop as my main PC. I’m still keeping all of the main hardware. 4 of 6 external HD’s, two webCAM’s, 4.1 sound Creative LAB’s sound system, and a 22 in LCD monitor…with more to come. I also (finally) enabled my "extended desktop"  which gives me way-more desktop real estate…..awesome!
