Totally was expecting something different from those choice of words....
Ive been using WHS for 4 years now. It rocks!

*ahem*...that playtoy comes later. 

Was going to do a build but this box will be $165 after rebates.  WHS has some nice plugins for Media Center /Xbox integration (a strong point).

I hope 1vs100 comes back to Xbox Live. That was a fun game.

Not coming back.

The more I think about it the worse I feel about the time slot. Most young viewers during that time watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Show and older viewers watch local news. I cant see many young viewers switching to watch Conan.

4.2 million viewers, median age 30.  For reference, it beat out Stewart, Colbert, Leno, Letterman, and even out-viewed all of NBC primetime on Monday.

Advertisers have to be drooling over this.

We don't have a dedicated HD thread?

TWC HD is here.  Pretty looking thing.  HD Local is super smooth (smoother than video on YouTube).  No HD STAR here yet.

The bad news?  Comcast flipped the switch on the rest of the digital migration early.
The good news?  TWC HD is here early!

Snow update:  really coming down, and sticking to non-pavement surfaces.  Keeps up like this and it'll be measurable in inches.

Oh wow, i was wondering why I was hearing Johnny Gilbert narrate last night's Wheel of Fortune instead of Charlie. RIP

This was pre-planned.  There are a couple more weeks pre-taped with Johnny, a few with Charlie, and Johnny will be covering until a successor is found.
