I appreciate it! No rush, for sure.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Hey. New board.
I have found that Hulu + CBS.com is better for me than a DVR anyway. I suppose I could possibly drop Hulu if I had it, but it would take many years of Hulu to pay for this (and the hard drive) and I watch some Hulu things that aren't OTA anyway.
I was shopping like mad for something like that about 2 years ago and it wasn't available. Almost built a MythTV to do it, but got price-point burn. Now that it is available, I no longer want it. I've adjusted to the streaming options exclusively and see no need to go back.

I'm pretty much addicted to Hulu+ at this point, although I don't love the updates to the queue layout.

Nothing I've ever watched via a streaming service has matched the image quality of broadcast TV, so I prefer a DVR.

Yeah, my standards for image quality are basically "Can I see it?" so really the Smart TV is like gravy on top of gravy for everything.(Although I did notice an improvement when cable upgrades made me hook up the line directly to the TV rather than through the DVR/DVD player.)

Hey. New board.
Yeah, for normal garden variety TV, I'm fine with medium-good quality.

This is me. But, apparently, much worse than even I realized. It came to light when I tried to share something with a friend and he ran from the room.
Sigh. I'm never actually surprised when I discover how low my standards really are.

Hey, does anyone use Screenflow 3?
I've watched a ton of tutorials and read the manual and _still_ cannot master fading an audio clip. If anyone feels proficient, I would be ubergrateful for some help, here, via email, skype...whatever!!

Looks like I really need to get MS Word on my Macbook: how do I do that? What do I look for in the App store?

You have to buy MS Office in order to get Word on your Macbook. I think you might be able to get it from Amazon.
It is not cheap. Are you sure you need Word? Meaning: can Pages or Google Docs do what you need?
