Journal Journal: Oh, how I love thee, 802.11b

I'm sitting in the living room, watching that stupid Matthew Perry/Selma Hayak movie - the heat outside has me trapped indoors.

Luckily, my new laptop (HP Pavilion ze5385 - nice job HP.) It has built-in 802.11b, which connected effortlessly to my existing network. I can't stress enough how much I love being able to work anywhere on the property. I would have built a wireless network even had it been a major hassle, but I've had absolutely no problems - you just can't beat that.

Yes, I've enabled WEP, (and limited the available IP addy's) so don't bother coming over to dip into my broadband. LOL.
