Well, I went to Fry's and spent a lot of money. Namely, I bought a WAP (that's Wireless Access Point for the non-geeky). So, now I can wander around my apartment (both inside and outside) at will with the laptop, and never lose connectivity.

Ooooh, being a Borg is fun... :)

So, yeah, it was actually a family trip...family trips to Fry's are always fun, because everybody always wanders around and looks at different stuff...and we always end up finding lots more than we originally were looking for.

So, tonight we came home with a couple 80GB Seagate hard disks for $50 each, my WAP, and a 128MB SD card for my dad's new Pocket PC (I know...yuck...it was my mom's idea) for, well, I don't remember, but a lot cheaper than you can usually find them.

Anyway, I'm busy being all happy and whatnot now that I have my WAP (and talking in #tm, of course), so I think I'd better end it here.

Just wondering what type of wlan card you have, because I've had experiences with Linksys PCMCIA and PCI cards sucking REALLY badly - that WAP is a nice one (it's what we have here at my parent's house), but the Linksys cards blow pretty badly. If you haven't already made the purchase, I have a US Robotics wlan card, and it works AMAZINGLY well.

I actually do have a linksys card...haven't really had any issues with it sucking though. Well, except in the library at Poly, but I figured it was just ITS sucking (as usual). It seems to work very well here at home.
