I do on my laptop because at work I use a docking station and things get wonky if I try to undock. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but it's basically just easier to shutdown.

I'm going to repeat what the AC posted so others can see it. Evidently nobody else reads the other posts (shocking, I know) since this question has been asked about 10 times already, so one dupe on an answer should be OK.

I live in Minnesota. Those same 8 months you're talking about my asphalt singled roof is covered in snow. It doesn't matter what color it is.

Really? Because almost everybody I know on G+ has basically abandoned Facebook.

Only thing really holding some back is an API so that things like Wordpress can automatically push updates to it.

Sorry you live in an area that has crappy theaters. Tons of theaters in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area has stadium style seating now. Lots of room in comfy seats. People can walk in your row right in front of you and you don't even have to move (I'm 6').

Tell me about it...

I've been using Harmony remotes (550s) with my 2 XMBC installs (one Mac, one Windows) for about 2 years and have yet to touch a keyboard.xml file. If you select a Windows Media Center setup for the Windows one it just works. The only thing that doesn't seem to work is "page up"/"page down" (which does work on the Mac, but I don't remember what I have that setup as).
