ask my electric company to switch to renewable energy
Wind power 2 months ago

It only cost a couple extra bucks a month. It’s totally worth it! I’m now running 120% of my bill as renewable (100% of my bill + I give a little extra so 20% of another person’s bill is renewable).

I’m glad Portland General Electric gives their customers say on how they generate electricity.

Vista Media Center. 2 months ago

Finally finished my HTPC. I decided to not go the Linux route simply because I wanted the best hardware now which isn’t supported yet. Hopefully later I will switch to Linux. I’m using Vista Home, which is surprisingly better than I expected (especially with the bad press).

I highly recommend the Antec Fusion case. I’m extremely pleased with it. Great layout, very very quiet.

I’ve had two strange problems with Vista Media Center PVR:

2) Some movies on some stations must have digital rights management because the screen gets blurred out on playback.
