I have had it on OS X 10.8 (Still scared of Maverick) and my dearly departed Win 7 work machine. I don't bother with Chrome on my home Win 8 box.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have no idea what OS I'm using at work.

And now, when I switch pages on Chrome, it's showing me the content of a closed window (the lisah recommended job application--it could be worse). But I have FOUR tabs open. It isn't one of them.

My (very casual) guess on Chrome. They have made it into an OS. So running as browser in other OS the tendency will be towards garbage. They put enough effort to prevent that in Win8 and Win7 to keep it a major player. But they don't put the effort they should in any other OS whether obsolete like XP or just non-Windows, like the various Apple OS. So why do I use it? Well not going to use Explorer, and Firefox, after working well for a week, starting crashing again in Windows 7. So Chrome it is.

Does anyone have a recommended way to download videos off You Tube?

All is well that ends in pizza.
If you have Firefox or chrome, try downloadhelper add on.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
So we have multiple computers in the house and multiple sources of media.
We have a big TV.
Right now everything lives on my laptop and it connects to the TV with an HDMI cable. This is convenient enough, but if past experience is any guide, we will eventually trip over the cable.
What I think I would like is a media server where all of the digital content lives, which is directly connected to the TV (since my TV isn't internet-capable enough to stream), and which the other computers in the house could access to stream content.
How do I go about doing that? Assume that I am fairly flexible and moderately tech-capable.

Hey. New board.
Are you looking to play purchased Media, ahemmed media, self ripped media, and/or streamed media?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Primarily ahemmed media, I think. Our primary streaming is Netflix, and I understand there isn't much that plays nice with Netflix.
