We went from the RC to actual Windows 7 a week or so ago and the same thing happened. The laptop is also overheating a lot more than it had been. I think MS owes me a new laptop. Maybe two. It is about a year and a half old but it's had about the same battery life, maybe a slight decrease but nothing like the huge drop after we "upgraded" -- we usually have it plugged in though.
Rock Band, anyone? I've had non-gamers (some of them musicians) pick that up.
I usually spend some time playing with my Wii before I go to bed, as it's more relaxing and helps me fall asleep.
We already did all those jokes when the Wii first came out.
Since 100baseT ethernet only uses pairs 2 and 3 (orange/white and green/white), you could punch down pairs 2 and 3 on an RJ45 jack and pair 1 (blue/white) on a phone jack.
We are running ethernet on our old phone lines. Works fine.
You can read a good friends book here.
I checked. Neither of my friends has a book there.

I live about 200km (~125 miles) from Bowen; in a small city called Townsville, Queensland - population 150,000. Brisbane is the capital city of this state, and maybe more likely to be known by an international audience(?)
Nah, Townsville was in Powerpuff Girls, so it's the one we all know.
Actually, spiders have book lungs, sort of a slightly fancier spiracle with more effective surface area. More efficient gas transfer but not anything like a mammalian lung.
You know where there's a good article about book lungs? Wikipedia.
I usually hear that called "rep surfing".
