i got a new toy

Friday, January 9th, 2009

Today I got a new toy wireless router.  It seems my old Linksys WRT-54G with DD-WRT on it didn’t want to play nice with my MacBook Pro anymore.  I favor Belkin, and I couldn’t resist the eye-candy nerd appeal of their new N1 Vision.  Take a look:

It supports WPA2, 802.11N, and all the other fun new letter-number combinations.

Now to start working on hacking it so I can see the weather forecast on the display.

while out shopping for christmas gifts for some of the people in my life with whom i share dna, i came across this star trek pez gift pack. what a delightful christmas morning it would be, should i find these nestled in the bottom of my stocking.

ps. if you do buy them for me, please be sure to leave them sealed in the original packaging, for obvious reasons.

on my christmas list
