wonders of technology

just spent half an hour streaming Sly and the Family Stone and Average White Band....with the MacBook and earphones.....at Wal*Mart for $148 you can get a Samsung Blu-Ray player that will also stream YouTube if you can figure out how to get the DSL into it....and it will "upconvert" or something like that....it will make your DVD's better? I don't think I need one, but it's interesting to know that such things exist.....wait a year and pick one up at a pawn shop for $25 maybe.....nice here today looks like, going to warm up again....guess California is getting some rain.....going to rain here too sometime this week I think....
