Two Out of Three Ain't Bad

[f4f3]

Well, I wanted to fix our VoIP phone, BT Vision, and AirTunes tonight. Apparently we should be up and running on VoIP by tomorrow, I got the TV sorted out just in time to see the end of Andy Murray's match, and I've finally managed to get iTunes to see the amp via Airport Express while still being able to connect to the internet. Hurrah for them all, espescially the last. I'd been on the verge of spring £150 for a Squeezebox, or even £270 for a Squuezebox Dual, but now that I can wirelessly stream music from my MacBook, I'll resist the temptation, even though the quality might be a little less (although it will get better when I buy a digital optical lead.

Was that entry...in English?

I just substitute the words 'shiny shiny tech' for every word I don't understand. It is simpler that way!

It was in TechGeek, which shares the same grammar and much, but not all, of the vocabulary of English.

I understood most of it, not quite sure what "Airport Express" is, but it seems to be something that lets one device communicate with another.
