I tried to use del.icio.us, but I prefer foxmarks because not only does it sync across computers (for firefox users), but I can also access them on the internet. And all of this is private, password access.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Anybody have experience hooking up Time Capsule to an existing Airport Express Network? (An older one-- not an 802.11n)

All is well that ends in pizza.
Assuming I have paid my bills on time, can anyone explain to me how my landline has gone out while my DSL still works? And yes, it's the line, not the phone, because the Tivo can't dial out either.
Bad filter on land line? Are the tivo and land line sharing the same DSL filter?

Consuela, I've had that happen too. I had to have a service call, which I scheduled online through the DSL that was working.

Good idea, Ginger. I'll try that.
It sort of feels like everything in my house is breaking at once. Very annoying and expensive.

Suela, I have access to Consumer Reports from work, so I can report on what they recommend in the way of washer/dryers. Did you have a price point, or are you especially interested in energy efficiency?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Also, anyone have any recommendations for washers and dryers? Now the washer's gone out as well as the dryer.
I lurve my Bosch NexxtAxxis units. (They're not cheap, but they're extremely energy/water efficient, and QUIET. And have a "hand-wash" cycle for delicates.)

I saw a stackable set by Kenmore on the Sears website today for about $1000 that had an Energy Star front-loading washer; that's about what I'm interested in. Full-size but stackable, energy-efficient.
I'm probably going to the Sears Appliance Outlet in San Leandro next weekend, so it would be nice to have a couple of Kenmore choices to pick from. They sell dinged and returned machines for many dollars off regular prices, but I won't know what they have until I get there.

Sears washers and dryers are made by Whirlpool and generally have good reviews in CR. But that's from reading CR at my parent's house, and may not match the latest reviews.

Insent the CR Feb 2008 report to Suela; anybody else wants it, let me know.
