Have a nice weekend folks, heading to Miami. Sigh. One city I can't stand.
It's a Microsoft sub-forum....

I'll take San Diego over almost every city and especially Miami. Although I could get a tattoo in Miami since the guy that did all mine moved there.
The wireless adapter is very easy. Just plug it in, turn it on, and point it to the correct wireless router. You do have wireless security enabled right? if so, enter the key or pass phrase and it'll be good to go. Sometimes you have to power cycle the router.

and the people out shopping this morning suck! 5:15 AM is my time of the morning and most of the people out at that time do not belong there.

We will be purchasing a new LCD TV soon (My wife said we could not buy one until our current one blew up. Well it did earlier this week) and there is something I am a little confused about. Does anyone know the difference between a 60Hz and a 120Hz ?

*Do any of you have a TV with the Piano Finish? Are you satisfied with it? It appears to me so far that most Samsungs' come with this finish. We have no little ones here so fingerprints would not /should not be a problem. I hate to see scratches or dust marks /scratches on plastic and it will really show if there is a gloss to it.

Although I like Samsung do you have any other brand suggestions? We are looking to purchase a 46".

it is the refresh rate and the higher the number, the less blurring with action. If I was to buy one right now I would get a Samsung LED with the 240Hz refresh rate. They're more expensive, but SO much better than anything else. A coworker just bought one and he raves about it. Plus the LEDs are so thin and light. They're the ones that are like an inch thick even for the 52" screens.

All my appliances are LG and so is one TV. So far they have been fine. I have two Samsung Rant phones and mine has been fine, but my son is on his second one. However, nothing can survive his abuse. He has killed every phone he has ever owned. Anybody looking for a product torture tester can DM me.
The Samsung LED TVs are very highly rated and they pioneered them. I wouldn't have a problem recommending them.

I wonder if places like Game Stop sell used wireless adapters? It sucks that they are so expensive, but there isn't much of an option. I know Linksys used to manufacture a game adapter, but I don't know if they still do. The XBox one is specifically made for the 360, though, and it fits in that little space. The Linksys product would be a separate box.
ok, they do still make it: http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satel...=7492107960B08 but the reviews aren't so hot and it isn't much cheaper than the XBox one. I'd keep it simple on this one. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Microsoft+-+Xbox+360+Wireless+Networking+Adapter/7457432.p;jsessionid=D6B74F97F74F1453547F742E98910 0FC.bbolsp-app04-04?id=1126591945477&skuId=7457432&st=wga54g&cp=1&l p=6 (broken link)
