Ooh, I wonder if you could network a Scrabble game that way over 3G for players in remote locations? (i.e., could I join the PixDesign Scrabble game from NYC?)
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

Has anyone used a tool like in/out cash?
Are they even remotely safe, given being on the internet and all?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Because I'm too lazy to google right now: If I set up a wireless router for my parents and their desktop doesn't have a wireless card or whatever, will I still be able to hook it into the cable directly?

Most wireless routers have some wired ports in the back - you should be able to plug into one of those.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yes.
I think all wireless routers also have places to plug a network cable or cables in.
x-posty.

Cool, thanks. I will look for that before I buy.

I've heard good things about mint.com from a bunch of people and figure I'll switch over when my Microsoft Money hits its forced obsolescence.
I think meara uses it if you have specific questions.

Thanks megan. It looks like mint gets great reviews and inout is fairly new. Better to go with the established commodity, I guess.
I appreciate the pointer!

@Bonny Fides I have used mint.com and have recently tried Inoutcash.com and I have to say I really like inoutcash. They offer the same level of security and provide some great coaching features to help you stay on track. Just my two cents.

Thanks for the recommendation Jamar7. I have to say, I like the inout interface but my primary concern is security.
When they say 'the same security as banks use' I'm not all that comforted, though I guess anything online is at risk.
