Holy crap! PLEASE buy baskets that are rubber coated, I know the chances of a prong touching the power strip terminal and the basket are on the slim side but better safe than sorry

Did not work for me.

All I want do do is wave my hands around to control Netflix and My Videos.

@IamFuzzles: Get a UPS.

I'm pretty sure iPad sales slumped because of all the "confirmed" rumors of the new one....why get the old and busted when you can wait a bit and get new hotness.

As a note, there are tons of places that will send you free 3d glasses of this kind. I went to one of those mother's "my kids tore up the 3d glasses for your cheap game" pages. They are pretty easy to find, just google "free 3d glasses" and go to one of the known toy store websites.

Here's an idea. DUMP SOME MONEY INTO PUTTING ANTENNAS WHERE THERE IS NOT SIGNAL.

I read about something similiar to this a couple years ago.

@JonathanATTY: Agreed. Yes, lets let engineering students who turn Modern practices into old school methods say it might be done this way.

I DEMAND A REFERENCE.

I want a frakking 100 Mbps connection.....

@Slinkytech: i'm willing to bet they mean real sugar...

@DSB7: Honestly, if for once that means the ads I will probably be seeing are at least related to me and not about stupid perfume or some other such crap, I'm all for it.

@WhiteSnake: The same could be said for the games Kinect currently offers...

@dagamer34: no, i meant what i meant, i am fully aware that the digg effect no longer occurs. which is why it is now fabled. for it is just a story, since the actual thing is lost to us.

@404notfound: lol slashdotting was before my time. Sadly, I feel like slashdot takes too long to get current events and tech news posted.

Thanks Lifehacker, we are just as good as the fabled "Digg effect" these days.

@Bucky Rodgers (4:19 . . . close enough):

I don't understand all these overheaters. I used to keep my xbox in a small 1' deep x 2' wide x 7" tall cubby. (no front, just an open faced cubby) It never ran more than "warm". What you would expect from, say, a video card while playing a 3 year old game.

@typica1cat: If there are enough fans to keep the case at room temp, then yes. Otherwise, sweaty palms are in your future.
