Hmm...sounds like I might have some work to do this spring. Odds are, I'll probably only update the living room for now...and that would be easy enough since my living room is over my garage (and my breaker box is on the same wall as my interior garage door)...so I won't have to run new wiring the length of the house. It's probably a good idea to do it anyway, since I'll be purchasing a Sony Cineza VPL-HS20 front-screen projector sometime this summer. I'd hate to have something like that go up in smoke. I have been wanting a projector (for movies and games) for a long time now. When I was in high school, I had a teacher who would only watch movies, in class, with a projector...he said a television didn't do the movies justice...and he was right. I have been wanting one ever since I watched Forrest Gump on a 9ft tall screen. ;-) Mine won't be that big, obviously, but I am getting a 92" ceiling mounted screen for it (nothing fancy...it's the kind you hang from eyebolts and pull down manually...it's $300 versus $1,000 for a flush-mounted motorized screen of the same size and brand...which would you buy? lol). Anyway, back to the point. It would suck to have anything happen to my computers, video game systems, or projector...so I think I'll be doing some updating. I realized that not having a proper ground wasn't a good thing...but I didn't worry too much about it. I did worry a bit this morning, however, because we had a decent thunderstorm roll through yesterday (I live in southern Indiana, btw). I got home from work this morning and tried to get online with my PowerBook...but it wouldn't work. I was connected to my WAP and could connect to the config page, but I couldn't access my router. I came into my living room and noticed the lights on my router were all off! I was soooo afraid that it was struck by lightning. Luckily, it was just unplugged. My girlfriend or my cat might have knocked it loose from the powerstrip. lol. Sorry 'bout rambling...I just got home from work about two hours ago, so I'm pretty tired...and I ramble when I'm tired. Anyway, gonna shut up now. :-P
