What on the PC are you accessing? I can see the share on Zoe just fine, but if I try and ping Zoe or use any other TCP/IP protocol to connect to it, I need an IP address.
Ah, OK, I'm only doing shares.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Tivo does support Bonjour, though I have had trouble with Tivo randomly restarting itself when I was using Bonjour as part of iChat. Using Bonjour in conjunction with VNC doesn't seem to have the same problem.
I didn't know it was available for PCs, though. That's interesting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think Tivo supports Bonjour.
Oh, interesting.
I may very well end up doing both, because they have cool points and I'm assuming simplicity points (i.e. cool without me writing code).
eta: -t, that's even cooler! That's another option my friend suggested, but I knew my router didn't do it. Out of the box, anyway.

Okay, that was scary. Flashed my WRT54G with the DD-WRT firmware, and nada. Zip. Took about 20 minutes of forcibly calm resetting to get anything.
And voila! New router admin interface.
So far I haven't done anything other than the MAC cloning required to play nice with Time Warner. Later today I'll try the fancy stuff.
If there's anything anyone recommends (other than the two cool features noted here so far) for doing with DD-WRT, gimme a heads up.
Off to krav!

Well, I got myself an iMac G5. Should be here Tuesday. I know nothing about Macs, really, so should be fun. Uhm, anything useful I should know?

DH says your geekcred just went up tenfold, ita. I told him I wasn't sure yours had that much room to increase, but he insists.

Okay! Thanks for the comments on pedometers. I'm going to go with the Nike+ with a workaround based on loads of reviews.
Now on to the Nano purchase...
Apple features two refurbished Nanos...a 1st generation 4gb is $129, a second generation is $169. 1st gen features 14 hour battery life. 2nd gen features 24 hour battery life and a 40% brighter screen (according to the lovely young woman at Apple I spoke to).
Question: Is the 2nd generation color case Nano appreciably better than the 1st generation black/white Nano?

Jon B, spent several hours pouring over that and the pages it linked to. Cheers, that was exactly what I was looking for.
I think I'm struggling to come to terms with Control meaning something else..

I don't know about screens, but the 2nd gen Nanos are definitely prettier than the 1st gen. I've got a black 1st gen and I covet the 2nd gens. Shiny.
Then again, I keep it in a protective (translucent plastic) case pretty much all the time, so I don't know how much extra love I would really give to the shiny if I had it.
BTW, after calibration, today I had an error of 5% on the first mile, but only 0.5% over the 1.8 miles I measured. Not sure what to make of that.
Please let me know how the workaround goes!
