I’m crushed. The best part — NETWORKING was Bla bla blaed out to save room for… Mrs’ A’s butt??? I can’t look at that, I’m married!

If enough people REALLY want to see the networking stuff, I’ll do an ancillary video.

Kewl, you have a RJ-45 “Patch Panel” in your wall. I’m guessing Cat 6? Honestly, you can do a ancillary video and combine that with cable-organization.

Um, this isn’t completely related to the post at hand, but I was wondering… what do you think about the new Apple TV? I’ve read about it, been to the Apple site, etc., but I still can’t get why this product is supposedly such an improvement. Can you clue me (or us — you could blog about it!) in?

It’s cheaper for one, and they have taken most of the “computer” functions out of it. It basically makes it easy to stream Netflix and other online media. Think of it as an extension of your TiVo, plus for folks out there who do not have a Xbox or PS3 to stream Netflix on, this is a nice alternative. Check out the post on Mac Rumors:
I think this is a trend that is going to continue. Eventually TV won’t just be TV anymore, but a central command station that a household is run from. On-Demand Entertainment, Video Games, Education, to Paying Bills and even Tele-Video. (Think Star Trek.) I think Apple is trying to get in early, but make money in the long term vs. now.

Thanks for the additional info! I guess between having computers + internet, and cable + DVR, and an iPad, I can’t really figure out where Apple TV would fit in my life…

Video looks a lot cleaner. I love it. I have a few video questions.
Why did you go with the Marantz over the H4n?
What are you using to get the sound into the Marantz?
Are you using Plural Eyes for sync?
I see a lot of Blur in these shots, what lens are you using?
What are you using for lighting?
Will there be a video about the video set-up?
If not, can you at least post some images of it?
Sorry about the barrage of questions. Really dope that you are doing all this yourself. I have dabbled in it a bit and appreciate the work behind it. I have started to piece together my own mini set up, and so I get really excited when i see someone do it with everything already put together.
Finally, I have some ass shaking music for Heather’s next video. You, know with me being a rapper and all. Seriously.

Very well done, Jon! I can tell that you have be studying the hell out of your new equipment and this video is so much more professional looking– although I kind of like your more casual , not-so-professional approach to everything a little more. ; )
Love the snippet of Marlo’s first steps. I’ll bet she’s rolling now!
