Moderators Andavari Posted December 17, 2006 Moderators Share Posted December 17, 2006 Getting ready for that laptop-just have to convince the better half to let me get one in the newyear! Nows the perfect time for Santa to deliver one in about a weeks time! I suppose the discussion may be something like: "where'd you get that" "Santa dear" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting ready for that laptop-just have to convince the better half to let me get one in the newyear! Did you run & crimp all the cable yourself? Why did you do that? Didn't you get a wireless router? I'm gonna assume, no since you are running cable. Well, if that is the case then you'll have 100 mb/s all the way around. Nows the perfect time for Santa to deliver one in about a weeks time! I suppose the discussion may be something like: "where'd you get that" "Santa dear" LMAO! Yeah, right! The ball and chain......

1984 Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 admiral ross- yes i got a wireless one, but my bro in law gave me all the cable for free (he installs the stuff for a living), so i figured id run it all and then it would be there for the future. i also have both satellite and cable vision cords run to every room. andavari- it finishes off like this: wife-santas toast. me- looks like santa will be working a lot of overtime. would you like a foot rub?
