Maybe I should start blogging again...
...if only to rant about the lack of sleep I got last night, due to my own OCD in getting technology to work. Got a new nettop system (an Acer Aspire Revo) and I was installing XBMC last night. The main fight was getting wireless to work, which was mostly unsuccessful once I finally got to bed at 2am. My main triumph was actually getting Ubuntu to recognize the wireless card at all; now I just need to get it to actually connect to my router. I can do it in a pinch via Cat5, but I'd really rather not have to run cable into the living room from the router.
However, everything else seems to be working with XBMC thus far, so I can't complain too much. Perhaps I can start getting my video library onto the new 2TB drive tonight and make sure I can get the library functionality to work too (with info updated via Cat5 for now, obviously).
I hate having to be at work right now when tech sits at home awaiting my configuration. At least it's Friday...well, except for the fact that I'm working tomorrow morning too. D'oh.
