Retirement is like having kids... if you wait till you think you can afford them, then you will never have it.  :laugh:

Use it for redoing or correcting templates for old workplace. Still do a wee bit of consulting work from home. Won't be upgrading to 6 fer sure.
I enjoy this "no Monday" routine too much to get back in the pits.

Sorry, On Topic: Before you upgrade you might want to check which apps you will lose by going to about this Mac/ more info/ Applications and sort by kind. Any that say classic or Power PC you will need to upgrade or lose!

Quote from: Joe on February 17, 2011, 01:47:28 AMPrepress has gotten really boring because there is not much of a challenge most days. Open a PDF, maybe do a minor fix, close PDF. Repeat 200 times. Blah. :sleepy:

Exactly why I took early retirement, Joe. Well said. :hello:

Quote from: Chilbear on February 10, 2011, 10:17:18 AMI just installed AppleTV (Christmas gift to Mrs). They are wireless and very portable with only the HDMI cable to plus in to be able to use on another TV. All connects to your Mac running iTunes - real easy. They have the option to hard wire with Ethernet and that is suppose to be "better" when watching movies as it streams the whole  movie/show into RAM before starting. This is why I am scratching my head - how to get Air HD to be included.

Since my house is already wired for sat tv I will just use existing cable for the HD antenna and HDMI for the computer setup... switching back and forth with the remote input button.
Can get refurbished Apple TV boxes for $85... my question is would I need one for each TV????

I currently have Direct TV to main DVR box in living room and a second connected box for the bedroom. I want to get rid of Direct TV all together and get a HD antenna to pick up 2 network stations from Knoxville (60 miles away) and the local PBS HD station. My question is... if I get, say Apple TV box networked for the living room main TV then what would I need for the bedroom TV to receive computer content?
Feckin commercials are putting my head away! You pay 70 or so bucks a month for dish and still have to put up with mindless crap commercials  every eight minutes!!  :banghead:

How does this work for multiple TVs... assuming you would have to set a network purer box for each one???
